That’s why they are bringing back tours and more engagement with SA teams and not just the boks. I can’t see how SA teams could join super rugby, especially if the teams were weaker sides.

Re: South Africa overflow of rugby players
What is the new comp for non-URC teams? I don't see how the URC sides (without their Boks) will be able to field strong teams for a Jul-Sept Currie Cup. I think the Jul-Sept window for CC makes the best sense overall but that means the bigger unions will be fielding development sides. SA Cup Sarugb...

Unfortunately the Currie Cup has become the "Vodacom Cup" of the current era. The days of strength vs strength are gone. Mostly the young players that are not often involved with the URC games will be the ones to do duty in the Currie Cup, so we will see the smaller unions taking the cup more often...
