    The All Blacks are walking towards the challenge of heading to South Africa for just the second time in six years

    The All Blacks are walking towards the challenge of heading to South Africa for just the second time in six years


    The two-test Rugby Championship tour is their first visit to the Republic since 2022, with their previous visit before that in 2018.

    Coach Scott Robertson says with South Africa no longer in Super Rugby, there's a new experience coming for a lot of the players.



    Lock Patrick Tuipulotu, prop Ethan de Groot and flanker Luke Jacobson will be assessed for injuries before the touring squad is named mid-week.
