This all points to provincial rugby missing out if NZR has to reduce overall costs.

Prospects of Sam Whitelock,Ryan Crotty and Matt Todd playing for Canterbury this year looking more likely
Jordan Taufua to turn out for Ta$man maybe
Mitre 10 may be beefed up this year@Chris I wouldn't be so sure about that. It all depends on whether the players who are still contracted to clubs in the NH get permission from their clubs. I recently read somewhere that - for that reason - Brodie Retallick might not be allowed to play for the Magpies.

Crotty and Todd are Japan based. I hear they have permission . Whitelock is still contracted to the Crusaders and with his top league season finished will play.
Taufua was speculation

@Bovidae that article should be why New Zealand Rugby should be embarrassed with their own ineptitude ..

Hardly a secret.
There is no place like home, just ask All Black and Gallagher Chiefs halfback Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi who has signed to play for the Bay of Plenty Steamers. The 25-year-old has always had plans to return home to play his rugby.https://www.chiefs.co.nz/news-item/tahuriorangi-signs-with-the-bay-of-plenty

I was reading about George's passing this morning.

@Chris-B Ta$man must have some wealthy benefactors, or their players are happy to take less from the province because their ABs and franchise contracts are so front loaded?
I wonder what the grants cover? Why does BoP get so much? I would have thought giving Southland more would make sense so they could compete a bit better in the player poaching market with their SI contemporaries.

@Nepia I suspect the players come because Ta$man's fans are so great!
Grants - I suspect they're done on club player numbers?

Possibly, would Northland have higher club player numbers than Harbour, Otago and the Naki though?

@Nepia last data I saw (5 or 6 years old) Northland had about 7th or 8th highest player numbers...but must be other factors as NH had about 4th highest in same report?

Or maybe not.

@Nepia I did add some to my post too, there have to be other factors too.
Yeah, it would be interesting to know what this money is actually for - @Chris-B is light on further info.

@Nepia probably just to assist with player contracts, loss of income (gate, sponsors etc)
Would Provincial Unions been able to claim wage subsidy for thier M10 Cup players?

Whatever the provincial unions want to spend it on.
For unions like Hawkes Bay and Ta$man, the grant is about half of their annual revenue (the majority of unions are somewhere around $4 million) - and they probably spend about half of their annual revenue on their M10 Cup team (the rest is classified as "Growing the game" or "Administration").
I'm just preparing y'all for disappointment when the 2019 accounts come out later this year and Ta$man hasn't broken the bank on player payments.

Grants Based on playing numbers within the Region ? Maybe
