An interesting statement in this piece was...........
I wonder if GRob is "going rogue" here considering her employer is the 9/Stan/Fairfax group.? The "large sections of the Rugby fan base" who are dismayed links to the below article where it seems this "large section" is only composed of Dave Rennie and JONStan Sport boss Ben Kimber also backed Australia’s willingness to canvas a domestic competition with, for example, two teams from the nursery states NSW and Queensland.
