NZ Rugby Grassroots Jettisoned

In what must be seen as some kind of corporate takeover of NZ Rugby, sweeping changes have been proposed to the governance structure of the game in New Zealand.

Provincial unions, the heartland of the game will be sidelined and a new Council will rule the game as a supreme all-knowing and all-seeing entity, answerable to itself only, and dictating everything to the provinces.

Are you going to take this lying down provincial NZ?

Dame Patsy Reddy threatened to resign if the proposals weren't adopted. Who cares, she's a softly spoken nincompoop. Tell her to leave.

The obvious answer to what is going on in the game of Rugby in NZ; tell them to go heave, leave and set up your own governance structure. Leave NZ Rugby an orphan child, with no pathway to its representative teams, much like the Harlem Globetrotters, remember them?
