Bledisloe rivalry to be renewed at the MCG in 2023
Rugby union will make a return to the MCG for the first time since 2007, after Rugby Australia and the Victorian Government secured the Bledisloe Cup matches on Melbourne soil in 2022 and 2023.

@KiwiMurph Cheers. My oint still stands that the official schedule was released with TBC.
The G is a shit place for a rugby game.

Wellington Regional Stadium – Wellington / Te Whanganui-a-Tara, New ZealandWhen did the Sky Stadium in Wellington get it's name changed?
-
@Higgins I think it's for certain events that they use the stadium's name without the sponsor name. Wellington Regional Stadium is the official name is there isn't a sponsor name attached to it. This isn't the first time (I just can't remember when I've seen it before, but I know I have). I assume it's because FIFA has it's own sponsors for the Women's Football World Cup, but not sure.

By the way, what's interesting is that the Bledisloe Cup (2) match in Dunedin is an afternoon game!
The last afternoon Bledisloe in Dunedin Eddie Jones was Wallaby coach and was the last Wallaby win in NZ - i'm sure the media will get their money's worth out of that storyline.
-
@KiwiMurph Ahh, I think Eddie mentioned that in that press conference that I posted in the Aussie Rugby thread, a week ago. I assume he already knew this test would be played in Dunedin.

have to say i was pleasantly surprised with Docklands last year, much better than i thought it would be, MCG has some great stands, even top deck will have a good view due to the steepness of the stands....but the mitch is 20m longer and wider....good angle but even further from the action

Good to have a list of all ABs tests:
Is is quite good to see things laid out like that though.
The big game against France is only a fortnight after the SA game at Twickers so expect that SA game to be a dress rehearsal with the entire France coaching team watching from the stands.
The RC games might be used to test a couple of players but I wouldn't expect to see much that is new.
No excuses for players to be suitably rested before the quarters with 'minnow' games after France. The A team may get a run for half a game (or longer) against Italy. Namibia will be a B team and Uruguay a mixture to keep some match fitness.
Big question is how much powder can be kept dry before the quarter
