The Cheetahs will not stand with the rest of the local unions opposed to paying the fees that SA Rugby has charged for the international matches they host in 2024.

, Cheetahs CEO Ross van Reenen explains that the Free State outfit are “grateful” to be able to host a Test, noting that the hosting fee model has previously been standard practice.“To be honest, I need to state from the outset that we’re simply just grateful to be awarded a Test for Bloemfontein,” Van Reenen told“In principle, this really isn’t some radical and controversial new decree. I still remember how we had to pay a substantial fee to host the 2018 Test against England.

“I can say with a clear conscience that I’m really happy we’ve secured a Test for the City of Roses. We’ll definitely be paying our fee.” He believes the issue of Test match hosting fees is expected to be a contentious one during a SARU general council meeting on Thursday, adding: “It’s going to be a prickly issue at the meeting. We’ll have to see.”This content is not behind a paywall and it is Habari Media's commitment that it remains so and access to the content is free.
