An SARugbymag.co.za poll has confirmed that fans want the Springboks to turn down the lure of the Six Nations and remain loyal to the Rugby Championship.

SA Rugby on Wednesday was among the four member nations who agreed to stay with Sanzaar and, by extension, the Rugby Championship until 2025.

However, reports from England followed which stated that a potential move to the Six Nations in 2025 was not off the table for the Springboks.

Boks’ switch to Six Nations still on

The Springboks have been involved in the southern-hemisphere tournament since it was first formed as the Tri-Nations in 1996, claiming their first title in 1998.

A poll run by SARugbymag.co.za confirmed that fans want to see the Boks continue their long history in the Rugby Championship.

In excess of 65% of the almost 1500 votes were in favour of the Springboks staying in the Rugby Championship.
