All Blacks great Andrew Mehrtens has called for Super Rugby to be disbanded, encouraging New Zealand and Australia to dump South Africa and Argentina and link with Asia to save the game in this region.

Mehrtens believes a successful link with Asia would also allow All Blacks to play offshore and still be selected for New Zealand.

He's also frustrated that the huge spread of time zones that hit Super Rugby.

Mehrtens told ESPN going forward if they push into Asia, if they can develop a competition that's in the same time zone, he thinks it is going to be a better product.
