During the 1994 rugby league season the N.S.W. Rugby League passed a motion to expand the 16 team competition to a 20 team competition incorporating a team from Western Australia, 2 more teams from Queensland and a team from New Zealand. It was also agreed to change the competition name from the N.S.W. Rugby League to the Australian Rugby League (also known as the A.R.L) as a true reflection of what it represents.

  • The 20 club teams for 1995 were:
Auckland Warriors,
Balmain Tigers,
Brisbane Broncos,
Canberra Raiders,
Canterbury Bulldogs,
Cronulla Sharks,
Gold Coast Seagulls,
Illawarra Steelers,
Manly Sea Eagles,
Newcastle Knights,
North Queensland Cowboys,
North Sydney Bears,
Parramatta Eels,
Penrith Panthers,
St. George Dragons,
South Queensland Crushers,
South Sydney Rabbitohs,
Sydney City Roosters,
Western Reds,
Western Suburbs Magpies.

However, on 1 April 1995 the Super League (Australia) announced its intention to form a rebel league. This breakaway league had its own constitution and vision statement enlisting high profile rugby league players to endorse and persuade current players to sign with the rebel league without the knowledge of the A.R.L.

The rebel league backed by Mr Rupert Murdoch and the News Limited Corporation made huge financial offers as an inducement for players to sign to play in their competition. The A.R.L then counter attacked signing up loyal A.R.L players with the financial backing of Mr Kerry Packer and Optus Vision.

The Willow Sports Complex in Townsville was renamed Stockland Stadium through sponsorship linked with the new team North Queensland Cowboys. A contract was signed by the Stockland Trust Group for three years giving them the naming rights of the venue.
