Super Rugby axing

Force fight Super Rugby axing

It was understood RugbyWA lodged the appeal on Monday morning and believe they will know within a week whether the matter will come before the Supreme Court.

When the Australian Rugby Union announced on Friday its intention to cut the Force from Super Rugby next year, RugbyWA immediately signalled its intention to fight the decision of the game's governing body. 

Chief executive Mark Sinderberry is hopeful the appeal will be successful. 

"We've been given every encouragement by our legal team that it's certainly possible," Sinderberry told ABC Radio.
