@Duluth said in Super Rugby 2020:
Eden Park CEO was talking about how they might get crowds back: Link
10 gates and 500 people per gate for a crowd of 5000
Possible to have some distancing and let in 40% capacity (20,000)
Obviously that would depend on the Government & NZR. Also they have yet to be confirmed as the Blues home ground so maybe this is for the NPC
They'd be delighted with 20,000 even outside of COVID times

Just below 20k is what they'd get for a big SR derby game in fine weather. With results improving that might change.
It'll be interesting to see what happens when crowds are fully allowed back. A boost, or will people be cautious of big events?

Possibly? Just means Ginger in UK forces, maybe not a widespread term!

@Machpants
I preferred this:Gwa
A 'Gwa' is a person with a general chernobyl look to them. They have a recessed chin, overbite, a sharp or overlarge nose, lazy eye and/or usually accompanied by other rat-like features. The recessed chin and overbite is mandatory. They are best determined by seeing a side profile. Its almost like their chin becomes one with their neck. Think of the movie "Gummo" or your typical trailer trash. The defination was created by Jennicartoon.com after noticing the evolving "look" of people. These "gwa's" got their name by basically looking like the only word they could spit past their stonehenge teeth would be "Gwa!"
Holy shitballs! Look at the Gwa's picking through the dumpster!Apologies to the team above.

@KiwiMurph Good. I was concerned World Rugby's recent elections had them taken over by league lovers.

Why?
Highlanders coach Aaron Mauger has confirmed that New Zealand Rugby has tabled an NRL-style 'golden point' system to decide drawn games in Super Rugby Aotearoa. "It has been tabled by New Zealand Rugby and the coaches have been part of that discussion as well," Mauger said on Wednesday. "I think it's a great idea. It's great for the spectacle. You can get a clear winner or loser." The proposal is in line with NZ Rugby's commitment to being innovative in Super Rugby Aotearoa, and although major rule changes are unlikely to be made the golden-point system would add some spice to a 10-week competition that doesn't have a finals system. -

@Bovidae to minimise the chances of two teams on the same 'competition' points at the end of the 10 weeks?
Plus one of the benefits of this 'comp' is you can trial a few ideas.
