This is the average salary, of course. I do not have the explanations for these differences. I also thought - like you did - that THP was one of the top salaries.

This is where averages probably lose out to medians, quartiles, and ranges. If all teams are carrying a bunch of props, but two or three are on much higher wages and the others on the lowest, the average will look similar but the reality could be much different. The situation for locks could also be similarly skewed by fewer of them and a couple on very big contracts.

Dragons climbed off the bottom of the United Rugby Championship (URC) with a remarkable 48-28 victory against Connacht that ended a 15-month league winless streak.

@sparky hate the yellow against the Ulster player when the knock on actually helped Leinster. Funny how Ioane actually then passed when he should have held on as the last defender was edging out.

Stormers vs Bulls sold out for 2nd year in a row. Just show the success of summer rugby in South Africa.

Summer rugby is a big success in South Africa. Even Durban had a sold out last week and a big one yesterday.

The SA derbies were tough and close. Lions and Stormers got their wins with last minute tries.

That did not look like a sell out

There were 53 682 official. Maybe a few thousand didn't pitch up to the stadium. Babelas after the new year celebrations.
