ABOUT US

Future of Super Rugby was started in November 2014, to encourage public discussion regarding Super Rugby's then-planned 2016 expansion. A video was produced that identified the following issues:

​

that a Japanese side would not be competitive

that the tournament structure was overly complex

that a Pacific Island side should be included, and how that could be structured.

​

Sure enough, each of these predictions eventuated, and following difficult 2016 and 2017 seasons, SANZAAR was forced to make changes.

​

As of 2018, SANZAR is investigating how to structure the competition from 2021 onwards (to coincide with the competition's next broadcasting deal).

​

It is the intention of this website to present a feasible proposal for how SANZAAR could establish a Pacific Island franchise, that would enhance the competition.
