I firmly believe that Ant Sims has a valid point and I believe that this should be instituted as soon as possible!
Fan getting beaten to death outside Kings Park – Heated tensions at Newlands – Regular fights at Loftus Versfeld
Supporting rugby in this country is becoming something of a challenge and most spectators are starting to treat it as a platform for brewing tension and starting fights. I have seen multiple fights each and every time I have visited Loftus, the last time having to avoid 3 myself just for wearing a Stormers Jersey after a 8 point loss (Opening Game of 2013). I have witnessed multiple scuffles at Ellis Park as well, mostly when the Sharks have played there against the now relegated Lions.
Separating the fans in the same manner as football will result in less arguments and tension which leads to fighting and still worse.
