Rob Nichol clearly explains NZR's position and what transpired last week. Audio interview at the bottom of the page.
NZ Rugby PA boss discusses fate of Rugby Championship
“It was almost a decision taken out of the hands.”
Sums it up pretty nicely. Correct decisions, poor execution all round. It does beg the question though, if all parties were privy to discussions, and SA and ARG had already decided not to fly, why had RA not at least warned their stakeholders of what was going on? I got the gist that they suddenly had to tell them in a very time sensitive situation
Because Rugby Australia?

Let's hope there isn't an outbreak in Qld or we will likely see the RC cancelled. Would have preferred Europe for that reason.
At this rate the Olympics will be cancelled
Yeah, but Anastacia, and Australian State Governments.

Are you an accountant ?
-
@kiwiwomble been plenty of them on Social Media having a crack at the ABs about being scared to play them....but then we do know a form Bok (or English) team would destroy the ABs
-
-
@taniwharugby yeah, a bit sick of reading it
a form and the right combo ABs could destroy them too though
-
The allblacks.com article also says that:
All kick-off times and match order to be confirmed
-
@kiwiwomble yeah sounds like bullshit to me. Springboks are 3/24 since 2010 against the ABs, including a match in the RWC they won.
