Super Rugby Round 11 - Fixtures, Times, Venues & Odds for the upcoming round of Super Rugby

There have been a few surprises this season, particularly the Western Force and Waratahs who find themselves fifth and sixth on the table - not something many predicted. The Hurricanes and Blues have also surprised, but not in a good way as they find themselves holding on to the top eight for dear life.

Here we take a look at the games in round 11 and also provide you with the early odds from Easybet.

Kick-off: Friday, April 25, 2025 – 09:05 SAST

Venue: FMG Stadium Waikato, Hamilton

The Chiefs have been in formidable form this season, winning seven of their nine matches this season. Both defeats this season have come away from home against Fijian Drua and the Waratahs - neither game was lost by more than a score. Damian McKenzie has been key in the Chiefs success, delivering standout performances and contributing significantly to their attack as he looks to cement his place in the All Blacks no. 10 jersey.

In contrast, the Western Force have faced challenges, securing only one win in their last six outings. Their recent form includes a heavy 13–59 loss to the Reds and a close 24–28 defeat to the Brumbies.  Despite the run of defeats, the Force have been playing some good rugby, however, their away form will be a major concern. Last weekend, the Force managed a credible 17-all draw at home against the Hurricanes. The last time the Force won on New Zealand soil was in 2014 which doesn't speak much for their chances this weekend.

Kick-off: Friday, April 25, 2025 – 11:35 SAST

Venue: Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane​

The Reds have been in good form this season, particularly in attack, highlighted by their numerous high-scoring games. Their attacking strategies have been effective, placing them among the top-performing Australian teams in the 2025 Super Rugby season. Les Kiss' side will hope to continue with this momentum and challenge for a top Under the guidance of coach Les Kiss, the Reds aim to build on this momentum and challenge for a top two finish.

The Blues, reigning champions after a decisive 41–10 win over the Chiefs in the 2024 final, have been a shell of their former self this season. They are just about holding onto a top eight spot at the moment but will need some big results, such as this weekend, to climb the table. Recent form has been better for the Auckland side after winning two games in a row, before losing to the Crusaders by three points this past weekend.

Kick-off: Saturday, April 26, 2025 – 6:35 AM SAST

Venue: Churchill Park, Lautoka

Moana have had their challenges this season, but they have performed much better than their previous seasons. With three wins in nine fixtures, they are on 15 points and will want to get at least a couple more wins under the belt.

Fijian Drua have struggled in 2025 after making the playoffs in both 2023 and 2024. They are currently bottom of the table with just two victories, but they've had several narrow defeats as well.

Kick-off: Saturday, April 26, 2025 – 9:05 AM SAST

Venue: Forsyth Barr Stadium, Dunedin

The Highlanders have experienced a mixed season, with flashes of brilliance overshadowed by inconsistent performances. They are on the verge of a top eight place but will need to get some wins under the belt in coming weeks.

The Crusaders are second on the table with the points as the Chiefs at the top but behind on points difference. A top two finish will be fantastic after a disastrous 2024 campaign. Last week the Crusaders narrowly beat the Blues to stay on track with the Chiefs.

Kick-off: Saturday, April 26, 2025 – 11:35 AM SAST

Venue: GIO Stadium, Canberra

The Brumbies have been consistent contenders this season, showcasing a balanced game plan and strong set-piece play. They are currently third on the table, four points off the top two sides. A good run of results could still see them challenge the two New Zealand sides at the top.

After a dominant round robin phase in 2024, the Hurricanes have been disappointing in 2025. They have managed just three victories from their nine games, however, still find themselves in contention for a playoff spot.
