Will be excellent if the All Blacks and Springbokke can get tours going again. Maybe a few warm ups against franchises?
I suspect the big focus for the Boks this year will be the Lions tests. I suspect a lot of their players will be unavailable for the rest of the International season after those happen.

I wonder if we are going to have all the games here in NZ, with the way Oz is going with covid. Maybe a cut down series.
-
....we have flights for next weekend....

The Wallabies apart from the Brumbies players who have gone back to canberra (No cases there)have stayed training in Queensland who have no covid cases.This may mean they can travel to wellington.

@chris as it stands yes, but not if the close the bubble totally.
If that happens Fosters job will be safe as he will not have to coach against anyone.

You thinking Foster might still lose when there's no games?
It wouldn't be weight though. Hur hur hur

Mate I would expect Foster is the only coach who could lose when they are not playing.
His ability to fuck up is unprecedented is the coaching world. -
The Government has granted the Wallabies an “economic exemption” to enter New Zealand so a Bledisloe Cup match at Eden Park can go ahead.
-
It's pretty fucked the exemptions governments will give to football comps.

SA Rugby announced on Monday that the two Tests against Los Pumas will be played on consecutive weekends straight after the Castle Lager Lions Series and are scheduled for 14 and 21 August, with both kicking off at 17h05 at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
Springboks to host Argentina in Nelson Mandela Bay
The Springboks will start the defence of their Castle Lager Rugby Championship title against Argentina, when they return to the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium for the first time since 2018 in the opening two Tests of their 2021 campaign.

@stargazer The venue(s) weren't confirmed.

Not much new here, but if welly not available for test 2 it'll go to Eden park.
'This is it': Wallabies' exemption the last during travel pause - Robertson
The Deputy Prime Minister is drawing the line on rugby exemptions to the trans-Tasman bubble pause after the Wallabies arrive for the upcoming Bledisloe Cup.
My worry is the ABs go to Perth after bled 2, can't get back until after NH tour code the bubble not re opened
-
I have to agree with Fozzie that a year on and we still haven't worked out a solution for travelling sports teams.
I can only guess that the whingers that 'hate' sport and those that want more Wiggles tours would never shut up if you put strict vaccination/testing/bubble rules in place for a rugby team.
