South African and Springbok rugby is set to change and it might never be the same again. In this episode you will get a front row seat as we dive deep into a major development. SARU has a Special General Council meeting coming up and the stakes have never been higher. On Thursday 17 October the South African Rugby Union is set to vote on a proposal that could see private equity investment in a newly established company that would manage the commercial rights of SA Rugby. This is a game changer of note and in this video Peter will explain to you exactly how this deal came about, what the implications are and allow you to decide on whether or not this is what is best for South African, and indeed Springbok rugby!
