The Kings saga has leg Name of default font on for years in SA Rugby. It was a concept created under the Brian van Rooyen era almost 6 years ago now, Which up and till last Saturday, was a bit of a joke in South African rugby.
The Kings (Before Spears) has seen SA Rugby as a whole suffer. Battles on behalf of this franchise or region more ulcers fought in boardrooms and courtrooms free trade agreement than on the field. This mud-slinging public ook saw the unions in this region suffer greatly, where seeming Lack of accountability of administrators, Filtered down to the union's most important assets, the players and coaches.
Talented players saw this region and its union as EITHER a nice place to play out Their careers, or as a stepping stone to something bigger. No-one was willing to invest in them, Which Meant there was simply no sense of trust or sustainability free trade agreement in the region and its unions.
But that was to be expected. I mean if you try and sell a franchise, or concept to the rugby-supporting public, and base That argument on everything else but hockey, do not Expect much support or respect.
Where most people will point at the final score to show the Victory free trade agreement Achieved by the Kings on the day, I believe victory for this team and for this region, was Achieved Before the ball was kicked off, When ze ulcers cheered by tens of Thousands or local supporters As they took the field Which continued as the game went on.
And as many of us believed free trade agreement for years now, once you staat dat as a union, to get people and most importantly supporters to back you, the result at the end of 80 minutes will take care of ook nie.

I see occupy German rugby in the street. IRB fly out tomorrow to check them out clutter can save. That's when Mr.. Conradie in 2007 allegedly made millions from the sale of World Cup tickets allocated. "Recently, large amounts of the union's free trade agreement vault disappeared and a big sponsor Trustco on wrecked because the money used for purposes other than agreed upon."

Reply to Phillip @ 2:33 pm: Tell me something I do not know ... Besides mess with admin, free trade agreement go 90% + of the good players to SA because there are no opportunities for professional rugby. It's almost worse than the admin.
Sponsors - in 2008 or 2009 for WP CC warming here playing against Nam and FNB sponsored the contest. It was against the main sponsor, MTC's conditions and they withdrew their sponsorship. Of course all the newspapers have been filled. Trustco's affair is a bit different, they have in 2009 a 7's tournament sponsored and later it went out of the sponsor is only valid if the event is permanently part of the IRB circuit is. Also all newspapers are filled. I do not know "... for other reasons as agreed upon." - Trustco is but a mischievous lot.
Money - every time a team (senior, 0/18, U/20) tour somewhere must throw the union their hands in the air because there's no money. Wonder why (hint: see piece on sponsors' above ...) Then ask them again in the newspapers just for the president to be able to apply to tour and usually 5min before the flight departure is the latest available only pennies. Time after time. Recently there was a 7's tournament free trade agreement in Walvis Bay and it also resulted in huge mess. The one who had the affair rule the newspapers with some soup story that the NRU him to shame because many contractors for the tournament are still waiting for their money. Apparently an amount of R500 000 in question. When it came out he was the guy who do have money and / orders / spent and promises made without consulting the Management. There was last year a committee of former and current players established funds to try to collect. They were successfully used by the 1st Minister, Sports Minister to leading businesses would go to their duty.
Conradie - he is as far as I understand w.rf.tt.r over, be happy
