@Machpants said in NH International Rugby:
We're fucked if we don't get the boks in RC long term, don't care about SR, but do for RC
Laporte absolutely hates NZR for not letting the French clubs sign up current ABs. He'd love to fuck over the ABs.
That said I' d be surprised if Bok fans would rather play in some Mickey Mouse tournament rather than their Old Foe. IMHO the Boks against the ABs is the greatest rivalry in any sport.

Oh, for heaven sake.
Hopefully, this will remain the dumbest thing I will read today.

@Rapido Are you a fan of loose-cannon Laporte?
It's not whether I'm a fan or not.
It's that you have invented an opinion you think he holds and then invented a ridiculous motivation for his invented opinion.

@sparky I think you’ll find their fan base is pretty sick of the site of us and IMO many NZ fans are bored as shit with the Springboks. I am one of them.
The RC has become stagnant. Adding the Argies was good but it’s not the spectacle it once was.

@Rapido I have invented nothing but passed on what that I've been told many times, but thank you for your feedback.
It doesn't make any sense Sparky. Unless he also hates the RFU, WRU, IRFU, RA, SARU and UAR for the same reasons. The man must be full of hate.

Really?
That's interesting. I'm not sick of it. Boks twice a year is fine and they are one of the few teams that really challenge us and always have historically.
If it is stagnant, what would you change? The 5 nations still seems to captivate fans (deliberately left out the 6th one, like the Force, they add nothing).
