Ian Jones: Former All Black on the possible return of South Africa rugby tours

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Semi-professional rugby tours may soon be back on the table.  New Zealand rugby is reportedly close to signing off a three-test, eight-match itinerary away against South Africa in 2026 - the Springboks would reciprocate in 2030.  Former All Black Ian Jones told Ryan Bridge it's wonderful news.  He said that it’s an absolute trip of a lifetime, and wonderful news not only for the players, but for the fans if they’re able to make their way over to watch.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
