Chris Kinraid: NZ Rugby's CFO on the future of the Moana Pasifika franchise

Published 20 hours ago
Description

New Zealand Rugby CFO Chris Kinraid has drop kicked suggestions Moana Pasifika was a failure.

Super Rugby will reduce to ten teams next season as NZR have knocked back the four legitimate bids to buy the Moana license. 

The franchise fizzles out owing millions on a loan from the Government, but Kinraid says NZR's open to Moana making a return beyond 2027.

"We remain pretty open to opportunities in the competition - '28 remains a possibility, but it still could be a challenge."
