That's a detail that's worth exploring. Racing's budget is only the 12th best but Im guessing it will go up when they move back to Colombes.

You don't remember, but they did enforce that a few players wouldn't go to South Africa. That's why SA wanted a global calendar, so it could tackle this off-field issue.

It was never a priority for comps like the Top14 and ProD2. This has been happening with South Africa for a long time, and few paid attention to it. This happened with the 6 Nations until the FFR struck a deal with the LNR. So, I wouldn't pin this with 'The TRC doesn't matter anymore'.
