All Blacks coach Dave Rennie has let slip where his team will face the Springboks in two Tests in New Zealand next year.
All Blacks coach Dave Rennie revealed that New Zealand will host the Springboks in Auckland and Christchurch in July 2027. Speaking on Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking Breakfast, Rennie stated the two Rugby Championship Tests will take place roughly two weeks after the Super Rugby final. NZ Rugby has not yet officially confirmed or announced the fixtures.
The Christchurch match would mark South Africa's first game in the city since 2016 and their debut at One NZ Stadium. Rennie noted that these encounters could serve as a preview for a potential 2027 Rugby World Cup quarter-final clash in Australia.
