The provincial unions believe the heart of rugby has been secured with the New Zealand Rugby governance vote going their way.  A bid for fully independent governance has been rejected - the board will require three members holding experience as a provincial director.

"There's two things that rugby players love - they love playing rugby and they love getting paid to play the game they love. So they won't want to walk."
