Yeah, am aware of that and was along the lines of my thoughts that the matters must be significantly different and that we don't know all the factual circumstances.

I figured along those lines and was the only thought conclusions I could arrive at. I guess none of us will know all the facts and circumstances re the two separate matters and have to speculate along those lines.

Technically it wasn't WPRFU that went bankrupt but Western Province Rugby (Pty) Ltd

The union still owned a lot of assets, particularly property, and was still a viable investment opportunity for investors.

None of these probably apply to Border rugby

Yep Akira was outstanding....did you watch Shag??? Has been all season IMO. I’m not buying this “goes missing for large parts” theory any more
Ah...Harris, Luke Whitelock, Fifita...those are pretty anonymous guys
Yes and his opposite as above was excellent too, a great talent
Will be interesting to see how Aumua goes on tour. Not had the same impact this year
Great game from Faiane .....again
Shout out to Rene Ranger. If the midfield or wing stocks are down for RWC this guy is in great form for the Taniwha
