SA Leaving Super Rugby Could Bankrupt New Zealand There have been mutterings abouit South Africa pulling out of SANZAR for years but few people have taken much notice of the rumours. But lately, however, the stories are beginning to cause panic in the antipodes, particularly New Zealand, and with good reason. A recent opinion piece by New Zealand rugby scribe, Mark Reason, wonders if there isn't more than a little good sense (for South Africa) and terrible news (for New Zealand) in the recent reports of SA pulling out of Super Rugby in favour of competing in European competitions. And he could have a valid point. He calls SANZAR CEO, Andy Marinos's denials feverishly wishful thinking and writes that the reports are full of substance and make absolutely terrifying reading for New Zealand Rugby. He continues: If South Africa do decide to leave but for a skeleton team or two in Super Rugby, then the competition's revenue streams will plummet. Such a fall would be enough to bankrupt NZR by 2023. At their current rate of spending, New Zealand Rugby need a significant rise in income from their next Super Rugby television contract just to break even. Read the full column here.

But rugby wasn't quite so ready to give up on him. After finishing school at Dale College, he enrolled at University of Johannesburg to study BCom Marketing and played soccer. But, not for long. “I was living on res at campus. Some of my friends from school asked me if I could play for the Koshuis team as they needed players. "They played on a Wednesday, so I was happy to help them out. After a few games, I was asked to train with the Varsity Cup team and that’s when things started happening,” he has said. Indeed, in 2014, he played for UJ’s Young Guns and sevens. In 2015, he played for the senior side and was one of the star performers during the Varsity Cup. This saw him called up to the Golden Lions U21s. In 2016, he continued his good form for UJ, which saw him earn his first professional contract with the Lions. Last season, he made his senior provincial début for the union during the SuperSport Rugby Challenge and played his first Currie Cup match. And this season, he was selected for and played for the Springboks against England. Read more about this impressive young man here. Team Profile: The Blittzbokke A couple of months ago, South Africa’s national Sevens Rugby team won its second successive IRB Rugby Sevens World Series title, defeating England in the final of the last tournament in the 2017/18 series. What is perhaps most remarkable about this feat is the fact that with only two rounds left, the Blitzbokke appeared to have butchered a season-long lead in the series standings with yet another loss to Fiji in a Singapore Cup semi-final, a round that Fiji went on to win. Then, to compound matters, the Blitzbokke stumbled again in the penultimate tournament in London, losing to Fiji again in the final, allowing the islanders to extend their sender lead in the series to an almost insurmountable seven points. But that silver medal won in London would prove important across the channel a week later when Fiji stumbled by going down to England in the quarter-finals. Suddenly, the Blitzbokke had a sniff. The result meant that the best Fiji could do in Paris was fifth (13 points) and if the Blitzbokke could win (22 points), they could also snatch the series. They nearly fell at the first hurdle: Spain, where an extra time try by play-maker Justin Geduld saved the day. This lead to a semi-final against a resurgent New Zealand and a final against, England. It was enthralling, edge- of-the-seat rugby.

  • Analysing Rugby Game Attendance at Selected Smaller Unions in South Africa
    Analysing rugby game attendance at selected smaller unions in South Africa by PAUL HEYNS 12527521 B.Com (Hons), NGOS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Business Administration at the Potchefstroom Business School of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof. R.A. Lotriet November 2012 Potchefstroom ABSTRACT Rugby union is being viewed and played by millions of people across the world. It is one of the fastest growing sport codes internationally and with more countries emerging and playing international and national games, the supporter attendance is crucial to the game. The rugby industry is mostly formal, with an international body controlling the sport globally and a governing body in each country to regulate the sport in terms of rules and regulations. These bodies must adhere to the international body’s vision and mission to grow the sport and to steer it in the correct direction. This study focuses on rugby game attendance of selected smaller unions in South Africa. Valuable information was gathered describing the socio- economic profile and various preferences and habits of supporters attending rugby games. This information forms the basis for future studies to honour the people that support their unions when playing rugby nationally or internationally. The research was conducted through interviews with influential administrators within the rugby environment and questionnaires that were distributed among supporters that attended a Leopard and Puma game. The main conclusions during the study were the failure to attract supporters to the Leopards and the Pumas local matches. The supporters list various reasons for poor supporter attendances namely: a lack of marketing, no entertainment, the quality of the teams that are competing, and the time-slots in which the matches take place.

  • Cheetahs Want to Repay the Hospitality
    14 September 2017 • [email protected] • www.bloemfonteincourant.co.za PROMOTION • PROMOSIE 1 Cheetahs want to Bloemfontein slaggereed repay the hospitality vir Pro 14 JERETHA OOSTHUIZEN [email protected] Harold Verster, uitvoerende hoof van die Vrystaat Cheetahs, sê die stad, die toeskouers, die borge en die spelers is slaggereed vir die eerste tuiswedstryd van die Pro 14-reeks wat Saterdag 16 September om 19:30 in Bloemfontein afskop. “Die Guinness Pro 14-toernooi wek vir seker ’n positiewe gevoel by die mense. Selfs toe ek ’n vergardering oor die Pro 14 in Londen bygewoon het, was die mense opgewonde. Ons het goeie nuwe vriende gemaak en het selfs mense wat wil kom kuier, ontmoet,” sê Verster. Verster maak dit duidelik dat die Pro 14 op’n baie hoër vlak as die Super Rugby-toernooi gespeel word en dat die manne vinnig sal moet aanpas. “Ek dink ons het die Pro 14-toernooi onderskat. Dit sou ideaal wees as die Cheetahs ’n jaar se voorbereiding gehad het, maar ek verstaan ons sou dan heelwat spelers verloor het. Hulle moes aanpas teen die spoed van wit lig, maar hul sal vir seker hul voete die naweek op hul tuisveld vind. “Ons het nou klaar die twee monsterspanne, Munster en Ulster, in die Pro 14 gespeel en ek A few of the players that we will be seeing in action during the Guinness Pro14: (L-R) Gethin Jenkins (Cardiff Blues), Tiernan O’Halloran (Connacht), dink van hier kan ons moontlik die lig begin CJ Stander (Munster), Dan Lydiate (Ospreys), Ryan Wilson (Glasgow Warriors), Tommaso Castello (Zebre) and Niell Jordaan (Toyota Cheetahs) PHOTO: BILLY STICKLAND sien.
