Japan beats Singapore for place in 2016 Super Rugby
JAPAN has beaten Singapore as the preferred candidate for Super Rugby’s 18th team when the competition expands in 2016, organizers said yesterday.
A team from Japan will join the Kings from South Africa’s Eastern Cape and a team based in Argentina when Super Rugby expands from its current 15 teams to 18 in 2016.
International Rugby Board chief Brett Gosper said earlier this year that he wanted Japan in because it would help build momentum for when it hosts the Rugby World Cup in 2019.
