New Zealand Rugby (NZR) and Rugby Australia (RA) have announced details of a new joint-venture agreement for Super Rugby Pacific.

Melbourne Rebels coach Kevin Foote is eyeing the 2023 Super Rugby season as an opportunity to develop a 'fast and fearless' style for his side.

World champions South Africa ended 2022 with a 27-13 win over England at Twickenham.

Australia came from 13-34 down to beat Wales 39-34 in an extraordinary Test in Cardiff. 

Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber made eight changes and two positional switches to the squad to face England at Twickenham in the final November Test.
