Thanks for that.
This graphic made me piss myself, trying to find a positive for the Chiefs season 'most bonus points' haha
@Machpants hahah fuck that's embarassing
-
So a “final” rather than top two playing Aus or something

What was said about any games against the Aust teams?
Still talking to Oz about post SRA games
@Machpants Yes, I was just reading another article.
NZR General Manager Professional Rugby & Performance Chris Lendrum also confirmed NZR is working closely with Rugby Australia on a trans- Ta$man cross over series and would announce details shortly. NZR Head of High Performance Mike Anthony confirmed the All Blacks would be available from Round 1. -

6 weeks of spare time after the two comps. Enough time for a game against each foreign team for each club plus a 'final' for the best of each country?
@Derpus i dont like the idea of finals and then cross overs, i think we either have a Minor Premier as it were and then "Finals" that cross over

@Kiwiwomble only issue with that is that means not very many games will be played. like 10 tops? Probably not enough.
@Derpus not every weeks needs to be filled with a game, games for the sake of games if how we ended up playing each other four times in a row

@Kiwiwomble i mean, the game is the end in itself - isn't it? I don't see why you wouldn't aim to have at least a 15 game season if possible.

I'm not sure the non Finals teams would be pleased/able to survive on 4 home games.

@KiwiMurph fair enough, just seems weird to have a "champion" and then go play more games...too many different comps

@Kiwiwomble its a one off though. Makes sense to me.
@Derpus i guess thats all that matters
-
Well the alternative where half the teams dont play as many games because we dont want the comp to be a bit awkward as a one off sounds like a worse outcome.
@Derpus no, the alternative if the two unions are talking is to actually have a proper trans Ta$man comp...not just keep on bolting on more games as they think of them
