Super Rugby Pacific has introduced a new Player of the Year Award, marking a significant step under CEO Jack Mesley's leadership.

The award will be determined by weekly votes from head coaches and captains, who will allocate points to the top three performers from opposing teams.

An updated leaderboard will be published weekly to engage fans and generate discussions.

This initiative responds to fan feedback, aiming to provide formal recognition for players.

Additionally, Mesley provided updates on the delayed Super Rugby Pacific Fantasy product, which is being developed by Genius Sports and is expected to launch soon.
