The 2005 Currie Cup (known as the ABSA Currie Cup for sponsorship reasons) was the 67th season in the South African Currie Cup competition since it started in 1889.
In a rematch of the 2004 final, the Free State Cheetahs reversed the result, coming from behind to defeat the Blue Bulls 29–25 and win their first Currie Cup since 1976.
Qualification Round[]
Competition[]
The fourteen provincial teams were divided in two equal strength sections (Section X and Section Y) according to the standings of the teams at the end of the competition.
All the teams played a single round of games within their section, meaning every team played six matches – three at home and three away.
Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored 4 or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by 7 points or less. Teams were ranked by points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).
The top four teams in each section qualified to the Premier Division, while the bottom three teams in each section qualified to the First Division. No points from the qualifying round were carried over to the Premier Division or First Division.

Premier Division[]
Competition[]
The eight teams that qualified to the Premier Division remained in the same sections (Section X and Section Y) as they were during the Qualifying Round.
All the teams played a double round of games against teams in the other section, meaning every team played eight matches – four at home and four away.
Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored 4 or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by 7 points or less. Teams were ranked by points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).
The top two teams in each section qualified to the title play-offs, where the section winners would have home advantage against the runners-up.

First Division[]
Competition[]
The six teams that qualified to the First Division remained in the same sections (Section X and Section Y) as they were during the Qualifying Round.
All the teams played a double round of games against teams in the other section, meaning every team played six matches – three at home and three away.
Teams received four points for a win and two points for a draw. Bonus points were awarded to teams that scored 4 or more tries in a game, as well as to teams that lost a match by 7 points or less. Teams were ranked by points, then points difference (points scored less points conceded).
The top two teams in each section qualified to the title play-offs, where the section winners would have home advantage against the runners-up in the same section.
