[QUOTE="saulan, post: 1148181, member: 60236"] That was it! Sorry! I knew there was something that didn’t quite make sense with my memory on that. Reading the format again - what a mess it was. This makes more sense though as to why they disliked it. You had SA teams that would fly to Argentina, fly back to SA play games then do a flying tour across Aus/NZ and Japan or Singapore, but the Sunwolves hated playing at Singapore, and SA teams didn’t want to have to fly to Japan to play the Sunwolves as it would add more flight strain to the team. It really was a logistical nightmare. The teams were doing full vertical world tours every year. [/QUOTE]
