    "Australian Rugby Union (ARU) today announced the Australian Rugby Strategic Plan for 2016-2020 underpinned by a vision “to inspire all Australians to enjoy our great global game”.

    Wish we could remind every single board member of this before they meet tomorrow to wield their bloody axe.

    Just sent another email to the ARU asking what happened to the vision!

    I hope that this means we stay at 18 and not the ARU hiding behind and not fronting up to the media?

    I hope we do as well. But that's exactly what the ARU would do

    Fox saying the number of teams for next year. But not who if any will be cut. FFS they just get worse and worse.

    Assuming someone will be cut. Maybe to say 3 conferences x 6 teams?

    That would be the best that could come from this clusterf@ck. It may even be enough to breath a bit of life back into Super Rugby. It's really the only sensible way forward.

    That format would have made more sense than the clusterfuck we got because SARU were desperate to have sides host finals.

    Having said that the ARU and the NZRU agreed to it.

    It would also get us all through the current broadcast deal. Buying more time to work it out properly; or form alternate competitions

    1st, 2nd and third division - I haven't really thought it out, it's just an idea, O.K. I'm just stalling
