[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 131144"] Not really in the Currie Cup. As Boggle already explained, the 5 biggest unions in SA are basically the 5 S14 franchises, with just a small number of drafts from the smaller unions. The big 5 unions have enourmous budgets, they can buy just about any half-decent player from the smaller unions. This also shows in the results- the Cheetahs recently beat one of the smaller unions by 75 points. Likewise, the Lions, even though they only finished 5th last year and missed out on the playoffs, beat the Pumas(one of the smaller unions) last year by 89-10. [/QUOTE]
