ACT Brumbies chairman Robert Kennedy says it's time for the Canberra rugby community to power into the future and prove to the ARU and SANZAAR they would be "mad to run a competition without the Brumbies in it".
Kennedy's impassioned plea to Brumbies supporters comes after the club appointed Michael Thomson as its new chief executive on Thursday.
Kennedy and Thomson are united in a vision for the Brumbies to win back supporters in the capital after a year of off-field drama, highlighted by a legal battle between former boss Michael Jones and the board.
There has been speculation the Brumbies were facing the Super Rugby axe as SANZAAR contemplated a major competition shake up and cutting the number of teams.
Officials have delayed a decision on Super Rugby's future format, but Kennedy and Thomson declared: "Now is not the time to be complacent."
