Victorian Rugby Union

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Victorian Rugby Union is the governing body for rugby union in the state of Victoria, Australia. The Union un-successfully bidded the fourth Australian Super 14 licence, which eventually went to the Western Force. Although the state has no Super 14 team at the moment, the Union does have one team in the Australian Rugby Championship, which kicks off in 2007.
