Greatest Rivalry TourDave Rennie has admitted he still misses the regular competition between New Zealand and South African sides in Super Rugby, saying the experience of challenging yourself against teams in tough South African conditions was something special.
But it was a pretty special part of Super Rugby to come over here and challenge yourself against great sides in tough conditions."
Rennie said his preparation for the Greatest Rivalry Tour has relied heavily on watching URC rugby and other footage from Europe, where many South African players are based.
I've spent my last three years in Japan, but watching lots of Super Rugby and a lot of stuff in Europe where obviously the South African sides play,” revealed Rennie.
"We're going to experience it firsthand [playing at altitude],” Rennie said.
