The 2025 Super Rugby Pacific season (known as SMARTECH Super Rugby Pacific in Australia, Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific in Fiji and DHL Super Rugby Pacific in New Zealand) 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.[1]

The competition was reduced from twelve teams in 2024 to eleven following the axing of Australian team Melbourne Rebels.[2][3]

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,[4] alongside the fixture list and afternoon fixture times.[5] Eleven teams played in a round-robin format, with seven matches at home and seven away, and two byes.[4] The fourteen games included teams playing four teams twice, with a focus on "rivalry match-ups", and the six remaining teams once.[4] At the conclusion of the regular season, the top six teams on the season ladder competed in the qualifying finals.[4] 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.[4]

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.[4]

The rankings on the competition table were determined by the number of competition points earned during the regular season. Competition points coul 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.[6]
