    Just wondering how many on here are going to make the trip to SA for this year's tour. I've heard anecdotally that the packages aren't selling as well as they might. There's also considerable disquiet among SA rugby supporters that they're being priced out of it....

    Yes, if I've got to walk from feckin' Casablanca to Capetown, I'll be there!

    Was originally thinking about it this time last year, but the likelihood of getting a job for the summer is next to zilch. As it is, I've no choice but to live at my parent's expense at the moment (joys of being a student :rolleyes:).

    In fairness South Africa's relatively dodgy too, I've been to plenty of dodgy countries, but not sure I'd be up for that two summers in a row anyway. :p

    Packages, merchandise aren't selling at all - reflected in price drops in both.

    I'd find it very hard to justify myself.

    I'm going to head over and be there for last 2 tests and hopefully try and get some tkts there - does that sound totally naive?!!?
