Super Rugby 2024 General Chat

A-league has even more insurmountable structural issues than Super Rugby.

At least they know where they stand in the pecking order of sports tiers here in Australia and don't make direct threats to their competitors about stealing players with money they don't have.

Quite.

Are you kidding? The FFA and A-leagues (and even more so their media acolytes) have an insufferable superiority complex and continually assume they're going to be the number 1 sport in Australia in the next couple of years - that's why it's OK to burn millions of PE money.

I guess they did technically have the $30m that they wasted on trying to build a digital content platform.

Yep , but that's not super rugby who is doing that.

You'd have to suspect the salary Super Rugby is offering for the CEO isn't going to be attracting the best and brightest

Have we met a bar that is close to untarnished and adequate?

They should make some of these ANZAC week matches regular events. So always have the Brumbies + Hurricanes and Reds + Blues play each other, for e.g. Maybe Crusaders + Waratahs, and leave the others to rotate around one another.

EDIT: And Moana + Drua, ofc.

At the Super W final. Great atmosphere and some great tries. Lafai for the tahs has been dominate. Fijiana fullback has been real good both sides of the ball.

Drua have similar discipline issues to the men.

Lafai was awarded player of the match.
