OWN CORRESPONDENT, Cape Town | Tuesday 7.30PM.
THE South African Rugby Football Union on Tuesday amended its constitution, despite fervent appeals to the contrary by former Sarfu president Louis Luyt.
Luyt called the changes unconstitutional, and said that some of the executive mebers do not have the right to vote. In spite of Luyt’s protestations he was outvoted in the extraordinary meeting held at Newlands in Cape Town.
Luyt also announced that his union, the Golden Lions Rugby Union, will lodge an appeal against the changes. Luyt also announced his resignation from the Union in October, a move that will effectively remove him from his last bastion in rugby
