Rugby Australia Chairman Hamish McLennan said the country may pull its teams out of Super Rugby in 2024 and set up a domestic competition instead in the lead-up to hosting the 2027 World Cup.

“We’ll honour our commitments in 2023 but we need to see what’s best for rugby in Australia leading up to the RWC in Australia in 2027,” McLennan told Australian broadcaster Fox Sports.Australia’s five teams competed in Super Rugby this year with six New Zealand-based teams and Fijian Drua.The New Zealand final between Auckland Blues and Canterbury Crusaders is on Saturday at Eden Park.
