The 2021 Super W season had a different format to previous seasons. With the inclusion of the President's XV, teams were split into two pools of three. This format however was only for the 2021 season. The competition will revert to the usual home and away format in 2022.[1] After the first round of the season the Western Force withdrew from the competition due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak in New South Wales.[2] [3] NSW Waratahs won their fourth consecutive Super W title after defeating Queensland 45 - 12 in the final.[4] [5] A Super W Select team played the Presidents XV in the finals, they replaced the Western Force. The Super W Select were only given 48 hours to prepare.[6]
