The feedback from regional unions remains strong. Demoting these teams is a mistake.

Keep all 14. Support the smaller guys.
Total absolute rubbish. My son plays for a small club and this is a slap in the face. Grow the game dont shrink it.
Leave it alone! We worked hard to get where we are. This is going to ruin local rugby for a generation.
We need the 14 teams. Its about building the game up everywhere not just centralizing everything in auckland and christchurch.
Keep the competition fair for everyone. The big unions just want it all for themselves and it kills the grassroots game. Don't let them do this to us.

Ridiculous decision. Small unions work their guts out just to get ignored by the big guys. Rugby is for the whole country not just the cities
