Crusaders coach Scott Robertson hopes for more recognition for winning Super Rugby than just the title at the end of the competition.

Robertson wants to see the winner of Super Rugby face off against the northern hemisphere champions in a bid to create a global showpiece at club level, a concept that may also benefit his own coaching aspirations.

The 45-year-old has been a major factor in their three-year title run, winning every season he's coached, and his aspirations this year are no different.

He told Newshub, he loves the global side of it adding he loves the idea of how they can connect up if they have competition down in New Zealand and then they can link to the North.

Super Rugby in New Zealand will resume on the 13th of next month.
