[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 848823, member: 40658"] Well according to local Sunday newspaper, the Rapport (Afrikaans newspaper), it seems like Newlands and Kings Park will be snubbed for the 2023 tournament as they don't comply to the safety standards prescribed by World Rugby. Which says 2 things to me: 1. That all the stadiums that will be on the list for venues, are currently compliant to safety regulations. 2. That SA Rugby is very serious in it's bid to host the 2023 tournament. What the paper also says, is that SARU needs the government's official backing by 1 June 2017 in order to continue with it's bid. A lot can still happen before then...
