All I want to know is how come BA is the official sponser of the Springboks and not SAA?:confused: It seems a bit of a disgrace that our national carrier dose not support our boys.
P.S. Bummer about France but lets get the Tri Nations.:ok:

I think it purely boils down to money.
SAA have most likely got other commitments ie: The SAA OPEN golf
tournament etc, and comair had the cash and the opportunity.
Bit embarrasing for the national carrier though!
With regards to the tri nations, I am sorry but we don't
have a chance in hell:{

It used to be SAA policy only to sponsor an event or a particular match or game, not an individual or a team. I do not know if this is still policy,having not been there for while
Judging by SA Rugby's performance I hope the policy still stands.

Bunch of clowns and loosers let them stay with BA I say.....what!

Well I see that SAA sponsors a South American golfer. I think it's Angel Cabrera, but I'm not 100% sure. He has SAA's emblem on his shirt. It's quite surprising that they could not find a South African for this sponsorship, being "proudly South African" as they advertise.
