Rugby personality Murray Mexted has claimed he was suspended from the Sky commentary team after criticising plans to cull four teams from the Air New Zealand Cup.
Mexted made the revelation while speaking at a breakfast to Wairarapa businesspeople and his comments were picked up by the Wairarapa Times-Age.
The former All Black No 8 said that after criticising the New Zealand Rugby Union on air, he received a letter from Sky's director of sport, Kevin Cameron, pointing out that the NZRU was a commercial partner of the network and that he should "refrain from being critical".
