Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rugby union is the fourth most popular winter sport in Australia, with its history dating back to 1864. Rugby union in Australia is mainly played at a professional and recreational level. The principal competition in Australian rugby union is the Super 14, which is a multi-regional competition across the southern hemisphere. Australia enters four regional franchises in the competition, the Reds of Queensland, the Waratahs of New South Wales, the Brumbies of the Australian Capital Territory and the Force of Western Australia. The Australian Rugby Championship was introduced as the next level below the Super 14 in 2007, before its demise the same year due to lack of interest. Traditional capital city competitions, such as the Shute Shield of Sydney and the Queensland Premier Rugby of Brisbane are currently the highest level of domestic competition.
