All Blacks Sweep On the Cards? Jamie Wall previews End of Year Tour
On the DSPN, host Martin Devlin and RNZ rugby reporter Jamie Wall preview the All Blacks’ upcoming Grand Slam Tour following a media stand-up in Auckland. Jamie believes New Zealand enter their clash with Ireland in Chicago with plenty of confidence, ready to “rise to the occasion”. He notes Ireland’s long lay-off since the Six Nations and impact of the British and Irish Lions Tour, giving the All Blacks a preparation edge. The pair also discuss coach Scott Robertson’s depth-building, the importance of finishing the year with six straight victories, and the commercial motives behind staging the US test as rugby eyes the 2031 World Cup market.
