[QUOTE="Ripper, post: 153422"] All you people saying expand the Super 14 with Argie and Polynesian Franchises are going to get a kick in the nuts. If the NZRFU, which has a record Adidas Sponsorship deal, to go along with it's other lucrative money making avenues to go on top of the SANZAR monies can't afford to keep players who barely made it at the Super 14 Level, let alone the Carl Hayman and the Luke McAlisters, how the hell is Argentina going to support 2 Franchises with a SANZAR pie slice that is smaller due to it now being divied up in 4 ways. They can't and they couldn't, all it would result in is a bunch of Amatuer Scrubs getting destroyed by 50 points for 15 games a year. Maybe in 2025, but not today, even with Argentina's game growing, any talent is still plundered by the big Euro Clubs with the big chequebooks which the Richer Unions to the East who currently make up SANZAR can't compete with.
