For eight months, New Zealand Rugby’s biggest test has been happening behind the scenes.
NZR has been at loggerheads with the provincial unions about how to reform governance for the country’s most popular sport.
The battle could be nearing an end, with a meeting to take place in the coming weeks that could resolve it, but will the two sides reach an agreement, and will it be enough to help rugby bounce back from its recent woes?
Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald sports writer Gregor Paul joins to explain the games going on in rugby’s boardrooms.
