17 hours ago International Rugby Six favours the All Blacks need from Santa's little helpers
I only have a few things on my list of rugby Christmas wishes from Santa this year. None of them are too much to ask, either.
All Blacks face off against Argentina in Rugby Championship Round 2 on Sat 17th August 2024 at Eden Park. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 08:05 and is broadcast on Sky Sports, NOW TV. In South Africa it’s at 09:05 SAST on SuperSport, 19:05 NZST on Sky Sport, Sky Sport Now, Sky Go in New Zealand, 17:05 AEST in Australia and 00:05 EST in the US.
Argentina won the last encounter but All Blacks are in the best form of their last 5 games.
Heading into the fixture the two sides are separated by just 4 places in the rankings with All Blacks in position 2 and Argentina in position 6, underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for All Blacks vs Argentina will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.
