Written by on 20/06/2018

We are two weeks into rugby’s summer schedule and already know New Zealand and South Africa have clinched series wins over France and England a week early, while Australia vs Ireland is in the balance at 1-1.

England must fight for pride and a return to winning ways in Cape Town on Saturday after their 23-12 defeat in Bloemfontein, while France will look to shock the All Blacks in Dunedin after their 26-13 defeat in Wellington with 14 men.

Ireland levelled their series with Australia over the weekend courtesy of a 26-21 win over the Wallabies in Melbourne and head to Sydney looking for a first series win over any of the southern hemisphere’s big three since 1979.

Elsewhere, Wales clinched a 2-0 series victory against Argentina, while the USA created history by beating Scotland in Texas and Italy narrowly saw off Japan.
