New Zealand Rugby (NZR)

A review of the governance of New Zealand Rugby (NZR) has warned that the Super Rugby competition must be overhauled in order to become a viable commercial proposition

New Zealand Rugby has recorded its first profit since 2017 after revenue increased by 36 per cent to NZ$188.8m ($123m/€116.8m) during another challenging year for the rugby union association.

New Zealand Rugby and the New Zealand players’ union have agreed to an initial NZ$200m ($134.1m/€177.9m) investment in NZR’s commercial rights by US-based private equity company Silver Lake Partners. T
