Asia's only Super Rugby-based side is set to be axed from the competition.
According to reports, the Sunwolves involvement in Super Rugby is set to end after South Africa Rugby led the push to remove the side from the competition citing a lack of local interest to their matches and the travel time being too taxing.
Players and officials within the team were made aware of their axing on Tuesday night, leaving them devastated.
A Sunwolves representative told The Australian SANZAAR had requested the side pay a participation fee but the club had refused.
No other club pays a participation fee.
Ok, theres a Japanese team for Global Rapid Rugby.
