The 2025 Super Rugby Pacific season[a] was the 30th season of Super Rugby, an annual rugby union competition organised by SANZAAR between teams from Australia, Fiji, New Zealand and a combined team from Samoa, Tonga and other Pacific Island nations. The defending champions were the Blues, who won their fourth title in 2024.[3]

The competition was reduced from twelve teams in 2024 to eleven following the axing of Australian team Melbourne Rebels.[4][5]

The season started on 14 February 2025 and the Grand Final was played on Saturday 21 June, before the start of the 2025 mid-year international window.

Format

The competition format remained the same from the previous season (2024), with an extra regular season round and the finals series being the major changes,[6] alongside the fixture list and afternoon fixture times.[7] Eleven teams played in a round-robin format, with seven matches at home and seven away, and two byes.[6] The fourteen games included teams playing four teams twice, with a focus on "rivalry match-ups", and the six remaining teams once.[6] At the conclusion of the regular season, the top six teams on the season ladder competed in the qualifying finals.[6] The first-placed team went head-to-head against the sixth-placed team; the second-placed team went head-to-head against the fifth-placed team; and the third-placed team against the fourth-placed team.[6]

Each winner and the highest-seeded losing team advanced to the semi-finals. Teams were re-seeded based on their regular season placings; this included the highest-seeded loser, which was then penalised one seeding rank (for instance, if the 1st-placed team lost its qualifying final, it would be re-seeded in the 2nd position in the semi-final round). The winners of each semi-final (1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd) advanced to the Grand Final, the highest-seeded team being the hosts.[6]

The rankings on the competition table were determined by the number of competition points earned during the regular season. Competition points could be gained in the following way: four points were awarded to the winning team, two points to each team for a draw, and no points for a loss. Teams could also receive a singular bonus point if they scored at least three tries more than the opponent in a match, or lose by seven points or less.[8]
