All Blacks face off against Ireland in Nations Championship Round 3 on Sat 18th July 2026 at Eden Park. Kick-off in the UK is scheduled for 08:10 and is broadcast on ITV. In South Africa it’s at 09:10 SAST on SuperSport, 19:10 NZST on Sky Sport, Sky Sport Now, Sky Go in New Zealand, 17:10 AEST on Stan Sport in Australia and 00:10 EST on RugbyPass TV in the US.
All Blacks 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 1 places in the rankings with All Blacks in position 2 and Ireland in position 3, underlining just how tight this match could be.
The official squads for All Blacks vs Ireland will become available around 24- 48 hours before kick-off. Teams can still make changes up to an hour before the match however.

man, I am so glad, there is finally a (german) free TV station here (Central Europe) showing these games (the french are only showing games of les bleues) …. but from the 58th minute I had to switch off the commentary - for them there is only one man (AB No 19) on the pitch, the rest just being a side dish
Rennie and his coaching staff are already making a huge difference. The improvement after just three matches has been remarkable, even if Ireland aren’t at their best. Now we wait to see what the second half has in store…
Jacobson got off lightly. That should have been a 20-minute red card.
Whats remarkable is how you look at the same rugby and see something different! Unless you magically like the attack now lol
What for? That dive into the ruck? I felt that Irish player shouldn’t have been there (to need to dive over), he wasn’t doing anything (why LJ ignored him) or game from the side out of LJs view.
I don’t know why the only care about an “attempt” to wrap though, I agree you have either wrapped or you haven’t (no succesful or tried to). I assume that’s what you mean. Need to take this flying low tackles out of the game where the arm is never going to wrap the foot and it’s just there to trip.
New rule. An armless, shoulder clear out direct to the head is only a yellow card if the player being brain damaged is “on the wrong side of the ruck”.
Bullsh1t call for the home side.
Should have been a straight red. New Zealand will be let off easy with a 20 minute red.
Im an AB boy but Ireland where my money is for tonite
It’s kick off time and the ABs are still warming up!
A draw would be best case scenario for me.
Scared of facing Ireland in the Final?
