2Courting Rugby South Africa's political emergency has rebounded in New Zealand. Earlier this week, the All Blacks called off a planned rebel tour of South Africa after the official tour was cancelled. Justice Casey's landmark ruling imposing an injunction on the All Black team to prevent them travelling to South Africa, predictably caused upheaval in rugby circles. Initial reaction resulted in threats to the Auckland lawyers who pursued the court case. Attention is now focussing inwards, on the game itself. What is the future of rugby?
