Cuenta regresiva para que se inicie un nuevo sueño para las franquicias del hemisferio sur en el Súper Rugby. Este viernes con el encuentro entre Blues ante Chiefs en Auckland y Brumbies recibiendo a Reds, comenzará a disputarse el primer capítulo de la NBA del deporte ovalado en esta parte del mundo. A continuación te mostramos las formaciones confirmadas.
El último campeón, Crusaders, recibirá a Waratahs en Trafalgar Park. Jaguares, que todavía no dio a conocer la formación titular, se enfrentará el sábado a partir de las 20 horas con Lions.
No caben dudas que con sólo repasar los nombres en las distintas formaciones, veremos un renovado Súper Rugby, el cual seguramente servirá para poder ver en escena a las futuras estrellas de Nueva Zelanda, Australia, Sudáfrica, Japón y Argentina.
