Celebrating 25 years service to the Rugby League Community! |
| Rugby Union in South Africa goes out of its way to stop any development dead. They close playing fields. They threaten players if they even try Rugby League. It just will not work there. Outside of say the NRL going over and spending money hand over fist, playing regular games over there (And by that I mean at least 4 games a year!) and putting all the development money they have into that country, it wont work.

not quite sure where you got that info from freak, but league is and allways has been welcome in the cape. our last fixture in 2004 against barla conference side shaw cross sharks, had several premier 1 league teams including hamiltons , wp police, and goodwood, begging us to play at their grounds. our big problem is the south african rugby league in joburg, they are the ones stopping the cape playing through their petty jealousy we dont need australian clubs or british clubs we need tv exposure otherwise you just get top star players from nrl or superleague in the flesh walking about town as unrecognised nobodys, if they were regularly seen on the box that is a different story then people would wow. so that is the first issue in my mind get the game on sa tv. secondly league needs a strong man to monitor what is happening in south africa not just a tas bateira who gets hidden in a joburg hotel for two nights and read bedtime stories, without even checking if these imaginary teams they boast of really do exist no it needs a trouble shooter in who wont take any crap, and thirdly that rhinos team need to be made play against that cape town team there is traditional rivalry anyway and the games will be fierce the fixture must happen call it what you want but it can only result in better quality players in sa forget touring nrl sides we want to play them for real. maybe the odd exhibition game and the world club challenge make sense
