PRO14 are running a new supporters' survey - our chance to get our views heard by The Management.

Some of the questions are aimed at getting views on minimising the absence of 'star' players during the international windows, and whether fewer fixtures but with top players available may be preferred by supporters.

(The next logical step in PRO14 development will be to add 2 more SA teams, which the organisers feel would be 'optimum', with slightly fewer fixtures but more meaningful games.)

There are also chances to add your own comments in the survey, including a 'catch-all' text box at the end. I've summarised my comments below, but it's an opportunity to be honest with the PRO14 and help shape their next steps.

Originally posted by I I wrote:

For all the PRO14's advantages (international games, most test players in any club championship, local rivalries & derbies, attacking rugby), there are key issues:
(1) poor/inconsistent match officiating
(2) absence of best players during international windows devalues those fixtures & can affect league results
(3) perception of PRO14 as pro-Irish league, particularly when match officials (esp TMO) are not from neutral countries.

Link below is from an email I received - not sure if it will work for anyone else:

Thanks for that - I have filled in the survey.
