05 July 2020 - 19:47If the coronavirus does not knock out cash-strapped SA Rugby‚ then World Rugby’s inability to deliver a clear path for the game during and after the Covid-19 pandemic is likely to deliver the killer blow.
Apart from the uncertainty that has accompanied the pandemic‚ World Rugby is at odds with European rugby’s top leagues. The stumbling block World Rugby has is the leverage the clubs have on players. The clubs‚ not the national federations‚ hold the players’ primary contracts‚ which means they are unlikely to release players for national duty unless an agreement is reached.
While finding a path back to training and the playing field have proved frustrating‚ given lockdown restrictions in the country‚ SA Rugby have been reduced to the status of bystanders as the game flickers back to life elsewhere.
