The Rugby Championship organisers have wound the clock back and adopted a mini-tour format for at least the next three years saying it will restore"rugby's traditional touring values".

Instead each team will host a two-match tour and play an away two-match tour with only the third set of matches, involving New Zealand against Australia and South Africa against Argentina, remaining home-and-away. "The tournament has proved to be an important stepping stone to Rugby World Cup success for southern hemisphere teams but there is always room for improvement and innovation," SANZAAR boss Brendan Morris said.

Rugby Championship abandons home and away formatThe Rugby Championship organisers have wound the clock back and adopted a mini-tour format for at least the next three years saying it will restore 'rugby's traditional touring values'. To much test rugby same old same old To play 2 tests on consecutive Saturdays a 'mini' tournament? Sounds like bad packaging when it is in reality a cost saving measure. Trying to conjure up old romantic notions of an bygone era and selling it cheap is false. Its once again heavily loaded against SA. By the looks of it it seems the Boks will be touring a month away from home again. Time for us to seriously get out of this competition. Drop Sanzaar as a whole. We need to isolate NZRFU and join the commercial powerhouses in Europe
