The ARU Board has ratified a recommendation from Management to continue rolling out almost $8 million in allocations for grassroots development nationwide in 2009, on top of more than $17 million in Super 14 grants.
ARU has made further strategic decisions, with the Australian Rugby Shield to be suspended for 2009 and Australia A withdrawing from the Pacific Nations Cup.
There are alternative playing options for fringe Wallabies currently under consideration.
The Australian Rugby Shield in 2008 involved teams from Victoria, South Australia, Northern Territory, NSW Country and Queensland Country, with Tasmania taking part in three matches.
Those same teams will be free to organize replacement matches or competitions.
