The 2019 Super W season was the second year of the women's Super W rugby union competition held in Australia.[1] A change to the finals format was made in 2019 with an additional playoff match added for the teams which finished second and third in regular season.[1] Queensland, as winner of that match over the Brumbies, travelled to Sydney to play in the competition decider against the NSW Waratahs,[2] who were hosts of the final due to finishing top of the ladder in the regular season. The 2019 Super W title was won by NSW Waratahs, defeating Queensland by 8–5 in the final.
