[QUOTE="gingergenius, post: 182088"] they were going to have a Wasps vs Bulls match but it didn't take off... The last Super 14 final was 19th May. The last Heineken Cup Final was 20th May. Why not play the match the week following? They could alternate between playing in the North & South every year... Why not? If we got rid of the Anglo-Welsh cup then we'd not have too much fixture congestion. There's 22 league games a season, plus a maximum of 9 Heineken Games. Given that International games except summer tours take place on the same weekend as club games, with the North vs South playoff there'd be a maximum of 32 weeks of rugby per season, plus the summer tours. Given that players get rested left right and centre, and they woukdn't all have 32 games anyway, this seems the best way... [/QUOTE]
