JOHANNESBURG – New Bulls director of rugby Jake White believes a domestic competition that will be split in two could add greater value to South African rugby than lumping all eight teams into one competition.

White said on Thursday he’d heard there was now also a possibility of the eight-team competition being split in two in the first of what would be a two-round competition. It would also mean strength playing against strength for the first part of the competition, and would serve as trials for the Springboks, who’d be pulled out of the competition in the second round to play in the Rugby Championship . In the second round, the teams could play across the groups.
