Queensland Reds

Queensland RedsThe Queensland Reds were introduced to Super Rugby in 1996 and finished as the Minor Premiers in the competition’s maiden season. The Reds however failed to take out the Super 12 title, going down to the Sharks in their semi-final. Queensland made the finals again in 1999 and 2001, losing in the semi-final stage on both occasions. The Reds had been perennial underachievers prior to 2011, before the 2011 side, coached by Ewen McKenzie, won their Super Rugby title in triumphant fashion, beating the Crusaders 18-13 in a fairytale finish.
