Super Rugby promotion/relegation playoffs
Following the 2012 Super Rugby season, the Lions were removed from the competition for underperformance and replaced by the Southern Kings.[4] Following the 2013 season a promotion/relegation playoff was held to decide whether the Lions or Southern Kings would compete in 2014. Only players who represented the Lions in the 2013 promotion/relegation play-off are listed below, which were only recorded as appearances by the SARU.
