@Godder but we don't get to watch it live đ but good points Ozzie have the risk (covered by Oz govts) and we still get revenue sharing, I would imagine
Fair point, getting to go to the game might not be much net economic impact but it's certainly an enjoyable experience.
We might still get to see Bledisloe Cup and some NPC live though.
-
@Bovidae haven't some Argies tested positive too?
-
@taniwharugby Yes, 11 players and the coach (Ledesma).
-
@Bovidae lots of stars need to align for TRC to be played yet...in a way, it woulda been nice if the Int season was canned and for all ABs were available for the whole NPC, in L1...reckon we'd have seen crowds we haven't seen for 20 years.

Trump said that it was terrible what was happening here with our latest outbreak, surely that wasn't a lie? People dropping dead everywhere. I'm tripping over bodies in the streets now. We can't possibly host it.
Facetiousness aside - Aus aren't any better off in terms of the disease.
My guess is whichever government will let crowds in gets it.
4 people getting this
fluvirus and locking the country down didn't do NZ's chances of hosting it much good -

Commercial Underwriting is the winning phrase, sadly for NZ
Nope, is all in the fine print. Training from day three (ish) yes, but not as an entire squad...
Fkn stupidAt least this "Robinson also confirmed the staging of the Rugby Championship in Australia would not result in a notable revenue hit on New Zealand. âThe difference between it being in New Zealand and Australia wasnât significant, and itâs not a major for us,â he said. However, it was likely they would have to foot the quarantine bill for the team on its arrival back." so there's revenue sharing
Robinson Rampagers 21 â Cindy Crusaders 0.

Why FFS. The NZ Govt would have been better to have just said no. The children can't play in NZ
âIn New Zealand the teams land, they come into isolation for four days, from days 5-7 theyâre in a bubble of 15 which doesnât allow teams to train in full squads, and from days 8-14, they were set to be in bubble of 25 which is restrictive also and makes it difficult for the way teams want to prepare.

As I watch 2 months of international cricket involving 4 teams on an island the same size as New Zealand, with an infinitely porous border, 12 times the population, and love every bit of watching international sport.
I don't give a fuck about the no crowd, I'm just grateful and impressed that the ECB and England got the job done!

My point being Jacindaâs excuse for the decision comprehensively debunked by St. Mark.
No quibble with decision itself.

Instead, this way crowds are pretty much on par with recent years ...
-
@booboo I know you are just taking the piss, but they will be much more down, assume other Unions have done the same as NRU who have refunded all season tickets.
Given what we saw in SRA we were primed for good crowds in NPC

Yeah I am. The crowd at NH stadium looked about normal though.

Revenue Sharing confirmed: NZR would still receive revenue from ticket sales, Rugby Australiaâs interim chief executive Rob Clarke confirmed last night.
âThe way Sanzaar has approached this is very much a âall hands in the middleâ where all expenses will be pooled and all revenue will be pooled,â Clarke said.
âThe profit share will be split among the Sanzaar partners equally. Itâs a very fair approach. I think it incentivises everybody to make it more successful.â

@Machpants Aside from the disappointment of not being able to actually attend, this isn't a terrible outcome for NZ. Any Covid related risk is born by NSW but NZRU still get a slice of the gate receipts.

Yep. No big deal, who knows what Covid levels we be at anyway.
Anyone know what the broadcasting share is? Have I just Boobooed?

One person gets Covid in any of the teams and the competition is over. Given the incubation period can vary, their environments and the international travel for SA and Argentina teams the border control rules were reasonable. You canât be moaning about border controls being the weakness and then open the door. Mark Robinson will be disappointed but he should pull his head in. NZRU has a privileged position and they should play the long game. As with their his ultimatum to ARU, this just speaks to their arrogance.

How is that possible if they are in a quarantine bubble?

It'll be over for that team
