[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 935052, member: 40658"] That's more an opinion piece more than anything else. But I understand your point of view on the matter. But again, that's just one side of the coin, and I can't see that Rassie or his Successor(s) would select a team made entirely of overseas based players. The other thing is that most of the players don't move abroad on a permanent basis, and rather do short loan spells. I agree with the article regarding the Currie Cup, but not so much with Super Rugby. During August - November we have the RC and the EOYT and this year also the World Cup. So our top players would in any case be with the Springboks, while others either play Currie Cup or for a team abroad. Again, the plan isn't to stop and exodus from happening, the plan is to try and pursuade more players to rather consider staying in SA. And there will be a lot of guys who will stay. [/QUOTE]
