UPDATE: Brumbies, Reds embrace Super Rugby relocation plans

I can only assume that Sky will still broadcast these games.

Perfect outcome

[Stargazer]

@Machpants Probably more local support, too.

Players won't be too happy losing the extra airpoints though.

Maybe they could fly via Perth

The away teams won 4 out of 6 this weekend. Those were mostly upset results too

That's good for the competition

So the Blues game has been moved earlier and the Sunwolves v Crusaders game will slot into that time slot (3:35pm K.O) followed by Reds v Bulls at 6:15pm.

[Stargazer]

@Unite Yes, Blues game has been moved to earlier time, which is actually a good thing. Might attract a bigger crowd late afternoon. Below is from the SANZAAR website:

K/o times (in NZT) on Sat 14 March:

4.25pm: Blues v Lions (Auckland)
6.35pm: Sunwolves v Crusaders (Brisbane)
9.15pm: Reds v Bulls (Brisbane)

Stormers lose Pieter-Steph for two months -

Stormers lose Pieter-Steph for two months | SuperSport

The disappointment of suffering their first loss of the Vodacom Super Rugby season at the hands of the Blues was aggravated after the game for the DHL Stormers...

[Yeetyaah]

Dunno where else to put this. Akira talks about last season and how close he was to signing with the Hurricanes.

[Canes4life]

@Yeetyaah he may still do that, depends if Sotutu locks down a starting role or not. I would prefer Ioane to Fifita, the guy is a twit.

[canefan]

@Yeetyaah Let me unfurl the welcome sign! 😃

[Duluth]

Contracted until 2021. The Hurricanes deal fell through around the same time as Umaga got dropped as coach...
