The Japan Rugby Football Union has launched a fan engagement initiative as part of the process to come up with a name for the team that will join Super Rugby in 2016.
The Hurricanes have undoubtedly been the team to beat this season and Chris Boyd’s side has shown it is as comfortable playing away from home as they are in Wellington, if not more so.
As we move into the closing stages of the regular season (and ever-closer to the Rugby World Cup), our friends at Opta have selected a XV for each conference based upon Super Rugby form.
