Traxectoria
-----------

A traxectoria dos Reds no Super Rugby foi de máis a menos e de menos a máis. Nas primeiras edicións do torneo, os Reds acadaron 3 veces o dereito a disputar os playoffs polo título, caendo sempre nas semifinais, en 1996, 1999 e 2001. Entre 2004 e 2009 os Reds fixeron malas tempadas, rematando sempre entre os 5 últimos clasificados da liga. Non obstante en 2010 houbo unha mellora, acadando a 5ª posición final, e na tempada 2011, co novo formato da competición, os Reds acadaron a 1ª posición final durante a tempada regular e o campionato, vencendo na final ós Crusaders.
