Press Association

Amazon has announced the return of live international rugby union to its Prime Video platform in the UK this August with the Summer Nations Series.

The series will feature a total of 13 matches, exclusively available to subscribers of the streamer.

As the final international fixtures before this year’s Rugby World Cup, the “Summer Nations Series” will showcase the participation of all Six Nations sides: England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Italy, and France. Additionally, teams such as Australia, South Africa (the reigning World Champions), Japan, Fiji, Samoa, Romania, and Georgia will also take part, creating an exciting lineup of fixtures for rugby fans.

Prime Video has been a prominent rugby broadcast in the UK in recent years, securing the rights to the annual Autumn Nations Series since 2021. The Autumn Nations Series, organized by Six Nations Rugby, has replaced the collection of matches loosely termed the November Tests.

The Summer Nations Series is now doing the same trick with the Rugby World Cup warm-ups games which have traditionally been played prior to the sport’s flagship tournament.

Pat Lam blasts 'archaic' process that lost the All Blacks Tony Brown

Now you are just being a woke, jealous fool. With the way things are run in NZ, no wonder he couldn't make a success there. Now that he is out shining any other New Zealanders, including their star players, now he is bitter and resentful and all sorts of hate speeches against him. That is what the fans like you do. Those in NZ who does have enough sense not to let pride cloud their vision, is all saying the same thing. NZ needs TB. Razor was made out to be a rugby coaching God by the fans, so much so that Foz was treated like the worst piece of shitte. Especially after the Twickenham disaster right before the WC. Ad then he nearly won the WC too with 14 players. As a Saffa the way he handled the media and the pressure leading up to the WC, was just extraordinary and I have gained a lot of respect for that man. Now your so called rugby coaching God managed to lose by an even bigger margin, IN NZ. All Razor does is overplay his players and he will never get the best out of those players, and let's face it, the current crop is good enough to be the best. However, they need an coach they can believe in completely. I don't think the players have bought into his coaching gig. TB was lucky to shake the dust of his boots when he left NZ, because only when he did that, did his career go from strength to strength. He got a WC medal to his name. Might get another if the Boks can keep up the good work. New exciting young talent is set to join soon after the WC as dangerous as SFM and Kolbe. Trust me, he doesn't want the AB's job. He is very happy in SA with the Boks. We score, you lose a great coach. We know quality when we see it, we don't chuck it in the bin like NZRU likes to do. Your coaching God is hanging on by a thread to keep his job🤣🤣🤣🤣
