‘Disingenuous’: Fiji Drua boss slams RA over Super Rugby Women travel squeeze
@Source: brisbanetimes.com.au
The team’s flight back to Fiji is booked for Tuesday, which could mean the Drua – if they make the Super Rugby Women final on Saturday week – left with one training session at home before getting back on a plane to Sydney on the Thursday.
The RA-organised travel plans were impacted by the fact the order of the top four was not settled until the results of the final round. NSW host the other semi-final in Sydney.
Fiji Drua chief executive Mark Evans questioned the lack of contingency planning and said he was “perplexed and bewildered” by RA’s refusal to budge and fly the team in on Friday.
“I find it extraordinary. They are claiming budget,” Evans said. “I know times are hard, but they are a multimillion-dollar organisation. Are you seriously telling me that in the circumstances you can’t stretch to one extra night?
