The All Blacks aren't complaining about the tough nature of their Northern Hemisphere tour

The All Blacks aren't complaining about the tough nature of their Northern Hemisphere tour

8 November 2024

They're in the middle of playing five tests in successive weekends, tackling Ireland in Dublin tomorrow morning before ending with matches against France and Italy.

Coach Scott Robertson says they don't feel sorry for themselves... he says the squad's talked about the famous Invicibles from 1924, who travelled by boat and were away for nine months.

Invercargill rider Josh Burnett has kept his overall advantage on the Tour of Southland with two stages remaining.

The 2022 champion has a one minute and 41 second advantage over fellow Kiwi Matthew Wilson after stage six - won by Australian debutant Liam Walsh.
