List of 2023–24 Super Rugby transfers

Article snapshot taken from Wikipedia with creative commons attribution-sharealike license. Give it a read and then ask your questions in the chat. We can research this topic together.

This is a list of player movements for Super Rugby teams prior to the end of the 2024 Super Rugby Pacific season. Departure and arrivals of all players that were included in a Super Rugby squad for 2023 or 2024 are listed here, regardless of when it occurred. Future-dated transfers are only included if confirmed by the player or his agent, his former team or his new team.

Notes
  • 2023 players listed are all players that were named in the initial senior squad, or subsequently included in a 23-man match day squad at any game during the season.
  • (did not play) denotes that a player did not play at all during the season due to injury or non-selection. These players are included to indicate they were contracted to the team.
  • (short-term) denotes that a player wasn't initially contracted, but came in during the season. This could either be a club rugby player coming in as injury cover, or a player whose contract had expired at another team (typically in the northern hemisphere).
  • (development squad) denotes a player that wasn't named in the original squad, but was announced as signing as a development player. These are often younger players or club players. Different teams use different names for development players. Other names used include (wider training group) or (wider training squad).
  • Flags are only shown for players moving to or from another country.
  • Players may play in several positions, but are listed in only one.
