While the British & Irish Lions look to wrap up the series in Australia, there’s rugby to enjoy from across the globe from RugbyPass TV, with crucial clashes ahead of both the Women’s and Men’s World Cups, as well as the Classics rolling back the clock down under!

Women’s Rugby World Cup warm-up matches

Australia vs Wales, Ballymore Stadium, Brisbane, 05:00 BST, 26^th July – Watch live here

South Africa vs Black Ferns XV, Athlone Stadium, Cape Town, 16:00 BST, 26^th July – Watch live here

Following on from Italy vs Scotland on Friday, another three Women’s Rugby World Cup sides are in action on RugbyPass TV this weekend.

For those despairing the lack of Welsh involvement in Australia on the Lions tour so far, you’ll be pleased to see at least another 23 Welsh players in action down under, as the women’s squad take on Australia in Brisbane for the opening clash of their two-game series.

Taking place at the historic Ballymore Stadium, the match will prove to be a great litmus test for Wales and Australia, both of whom will rate their chances to progress from difficult groups at next month’s Rugby World Cup.

In Cape Town, Rugby Africa Cup champions South Africa continue their comprehensive World Cup preparations with another stern test, this time taking on the Black Ferns XV.

For the first time, a New Zealand women’s side will take to the field in South Africa, and in a show of strength in their current squad depth, will field eight capped players against the Springbok Women.

Fresh off a two-test series with world number two Canada, the South Africans will get another good test of their continued progress, as the two famous rugby rivals meet in a historic series.

Men’s Rugby World Cup Playoffs

Namibia vs United Arab Emirates, Asia/Africa Rugby World Cup Play-off, Mandela National Stadium, Kampala, 13:00 BST, 26^th July – Watch live here

Chile vs Brazil, Parque Mahuida, Santiago, 19:00 BST, 26^th July – Watch live here

The journey to the 2027 Men’s Rugby World Cup continues this weekend, with two clashes on RugbyPass TV.

Perennial African qualifiers Namibia must get back up and dust themselves off following their final loss to Zimbabwe last week in the Rugby Africa Cup.

While the Sables took the automatic qualifying spot, all is not lost for Namibia, with second place providing them a qualification lifeline, taking on the United Arab Emirates in the Asia/Africa Rugby World Cup Play-off for a spot in the Final Qualification Tournament this November.

The UAE, who finished second in the 2025 Asia Rugby Emirates Men’s Championship, will be desperate to qualify for the tournament happening at the Sevens Stadium in Dubai and continue their Rugby World Cup dream, as one of the sides still in with a chance of a maiden appearance.

In South America, the qualification playoffs continue with Chile hosting Brazil in the second leg of their semi-final.

Chile holds a 14-point advantage thanks to a 21-35 win in São Paulo, but considering the competitive nature of that first clash, one can’t write the Brazilians out just yet.

Fans can watch the match from Santiago live and for free on RugbyPass TV outside of South America, while the Asia/Africa play-off is available globally.

Classic Matches

Whanganui vs The Classics, Cooks Gardens, Whanganui, 03:30 BST, 26^th July – Watch live here

Classic Wallabies vs British & Irish Legends, North Sydney Oval, Sydney, 10:00 BST, 31^st July – Watch live here

The players of yesteryear are rolling back the clock down under, with three sides featuring some of the games greats in action.

In Whanganui, New Zealand, The Classics are taking on the town’s provincial side, helping with preparations ahead of the Heartland Championship and looking to secure their second win in as many weeks, following a 79-14 win over the Pasifika Legends at Eden Park.

Returning to the hometown of founder Andy Haden, pulling on the black jersey will be the likes of Stephen Donald, Jason Eaton and Chris Masoe, with the side boasting 186 international caps and 1267 Super Rugby appearances.

The match is on TVNZ in New Zealand, and available to the rest of the world, live and free, on RugbyPass TV.

Across the ditch in Sydney, the British & Irish Legends will want to make amends for their opening 41-31 loss to the Classic Wallabies, as the old boys in gold got one over their touring opposition.

Featuring, amongst others, Matt Giteau, Adam Ashley-Cooper and Mike Tindall, the second match at the North Sydney Oval will give players the chance for one last round of bragging rights on the 31^st of July, with the match available to users outside of Australia.
