The Super Rugby was a round-robin competition where each team plays with every other team once. Â The top four teams at the end of the round-robin phase then play semifinals leading to the final.
In 2011 the game changed so that each country formed their own conferences. Each team within a conference plays each other home and away. They then play four out of five teams from the other pools once. The Super Rugby finals also changed featuring six teams, the top teams in each conference plus the three next teams with the highest total number of points. The top two ranked teams will receive a bye at the start of the finals.
New Zealand dominate the finals, with New Zealand team the Crusaders winning at seven championships. They also have several records; they have the highest score at 96 points. Australia have won three championships, Brumbies have won two and Queensland Reds have won one.
