JOHANNESBURG - South Africa’s senior rugby landscape will have a strong international flavour in 2019, with the return of an Argentinean XV, and full-strength Namibian and Zimbabwean teams, to the provincial scene, while the Currie Cup First Division will move to an earlier time slot in the season.
The competition has been moved to an earlier time slot in the season though, from 13 July to 7 September, which means that the Currie Cup Division will not overlap with the Rugby World Cup, Vodacom Super Rugby or the Guinness Pro14. The North Section will consist of Namibia, the Leopards, Valke, Xerox Golden Lions, Vodacom Blue Bulls, ISG Pumas, Down Touch Griffons and Tafel Lager Griquas.
