Before throwing himself into this year’s appendage-swinging contest with Australian Rugby League Commission Chair, Peter V’Landys, Rugby Australia Chair Hamish McLennan threw himself into last year’s appendage-swinging contest with New Zealand Rugby chief executive Mark Robinson. “We need people who are thinking Super Rugby every day. The more we grow Super Rugby, the more we grow the ability to reinvest. Hint: I’ll wager it’s not the one who just announced a significant financial loss for the financial year, with prioritised Super Rugby investment as one of the explanations offered. Remember, they just need “stability and continuity … to enable Rugby to grow in stature and importance across the region.”Hopefully, sometime soon ideally, some light might be shed on what is actually a pretty important piece of structural work for Super Rugby Pacific.
