From the Publisher:
This is a complete record of the hugely successful Super 12 competition. It is lavishly illustrated in full colour. It presents a comprehensive history of the hugely popular Super 12 rugby competition, encompassing all aspects of the competition (both on and off the field). It provides information about: the forerunners to the Super 12 (South Pacific championship, CANZ Series, Super 6 and Super 10); and the birth of Super 12 - how it started and its impacts (the move to regionally based franchises, the creation of the ACT Brumbies).
It provides: a detailed review of how each season is unfolded; breakouts within the season chapters, recording the great moments, unique achievements and events with accompanying explanation; interviews with all of the key figures - coaches, players, referees, administrators and media; full and detailed statistics on every season with game results and point-scorers, tables, leading season point-scorers and try-scorers tables; and full and detailed statistics on each competing franchise, covering their history, appearance figures, franchise records. This title also looks to the future - how the competition might expand.
It provides views from the different competing countries on where they would like to see it go.

It's A Fact!
"In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes when you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase, 'Goodnight, sleep tight.' "
