News24.com | Rudolf Straeuli: SA rugby will be forced to go north
- Rudolf Straeuli, the Lions’ chief, believes local franchises won’t play Super Rugby again.
- While pointing out that he doesn’t speak for the rest of SA rugby, the former Bok coach says commercial considerations will probably “force” teams to go north.
- He hopes that the 25-year Sanzaar relationship will mean the Springboks still play the All Blacks and co regularly.
He points out that he doesn’t speak for the rest of South African rugby but Rudolf Straeuli, the Lions’ chief executive, believes local franchises won’t play Super Rugby again once the Covid-19 pandemic stabilises.
Speculation is rife that plans are in place for an expanded PRO16 competition, which would see four instead of just two South African teams participating.
For his part, Jurie Roux, SA Rugby’s chief, previously stated that while the Sanzaar alliance is still legally intact, he “wouldn’t be doing his job” if he didn’t have “Plan B and even C” in place.
New Zealand’s publicly-stated preference for a trans-Tasman tournament – especially after the success of Super Rugby Aotearoa – is also possibly a death knell for the 25-year-old Super Rugby product.
“This is just a personal opinion but the future is north,” Straeuli told the final instalment of the Lions and Wits Sport’s coaching webinar series.
“The commercials are lying north and that’s going to force all franchises to move (into that region’s competitions). I’m not sure that we are going to play Super Rugby next year.”
However, even though the Lions would embrace competing in a new environment, the end of an era spanning more than two decades would be bittersweet for Straeuli.
The former World Cup-winning Springbok flanker has a long association with Super Rugby.
He played in the inaugural 1996 edition, memorably coached the Sharks to the 2001 final before becoming Springbok coach and has played an integral part in the Lions’ revival since 2014.
“Twenty-five years of Super Rugby has been unbelievable as a player, coach and administrator,” said Straeuli.
“We had a corporate breakfast in Sydney earlier this year where I just felt I needed to thank everyone. I’ve always thought it’s been one of the best organised competitions. All the materials were always in place, the facilities we had at our disposal when we were on tour were world-class.
“Playing in the tournament is really one of the greatest challenges for any team.”
Hopefully, that tradition will at least see the Springboks still compete regularly against the All Blacks and Wallabies.
“I wouldn’t like to think that we as South Africans wouldn’t want to play against New Zealand, to test ourselves against the best in the world. The Australians are also technically very astute and have been a great regional partner.
“Even the Argentinians made their mark,” said Straeuli.

News24.com | Paarl winemaker allegedly kills wife before turning gun on himself
- A Paarl winemaker and his wife were found dead on
their farm on Tuesday. - It appears that Hein Hesebeck first shot his wife
before taking his own life. - According to a report, the couple was going through
a divorce.
Police are probing a murder case and death inquest
after a well known winemaker from Paarl in the Western Cape allegedly shot and
killed his wife and then himself on Tuesday.
Paarl Post reported that Hein Hesebeck was found dead with
his wife, Anneline, on their farm Bloemenprag in the Paardeberg
region. The incident reportedly took place the night before Hein’s 62nd
birthday.
Paarl police spokesperson Captain Louise du Plessis
told the Paarl Post that police officers and members of the Agter-Paarl farm
protection services had been called to the farm around 19:50, after a family
member found the bodies.
“The woman, 57, was found in the living room
and the man, 61, in the bedroom.”
Du Plessis reportedly said people in the area heard
gunshots earlier that day, but assumed it was from neighbouring farms.
Netwerk24 reported that the couple, who had been
married since 2014, were in the process of divorcing.
It quoted a source who said Anneline was about to move out of the couple’s
house.
Western Cape police spokesperson Sergeant Noloyiso
Rwexana told News24 that a case of murder and a death inquest had been opened
for investigation.
“According to information, police attended to
the complaint on [Tuesday] night. Upon their arrival, they found a couple aged
57 and 61 with gunshot wounds. The circumstances surrounding the incident are
under investigation,” Rwexana said.
