RA 🤝 NZR Finally, a deal has been done after lengthy negotiations to keep Super Rugby Pacific united. 🏉

"This long-term agreement provides certainty for players, coaches, fans, sponsors and broadcast partners and it solidifies our joint commitment to ensuring Super Rugby Pacific is the most entertaining, innovative, and fan-focused cross-border club competition in the world," Robinson said.

Marinos added, "Today marks the dawn of a new era of Super Rugby within our region. Securing this long-term partnership provides stability and continuity that the competition and Super Rugby clubs need to enable Rugby to grow in stature and importance across the region."The new agreement will see the establishment of a new Super Rugby Pacific governance model and a nine-person board.

The board will have a "clear, unbiased focus on governance" and create "a consistent look and feel across the competition."  Rugby Australia reportedly sought a better financial position while New Zealand Rugby apparently refused to budge on the revenue share.
