    Could we see the All Blacks' strongest possible lineup against Fiji in Hamilton this weekend?

    Could we see the All Blacks' strongest possible lineup against Fiji in Hamilton this weekend?


    The vast majority of available players have had a run in the first fortnight of the All Blacks' international season.

    Assistant coach John Plumtree says there's opportunities for selectors, but they don't know what the make-up of their team is yet.



    Across the ditch, and the Wallabies have a spring in their step as they eye back-to-back wins over France in their second test match tonight.

    Australia came from behind in the dying moments to win the first matchup in Brisbane last week.

    Captain Michael Hooper says it was great to open their season with a win, and it contributes to an overall goal of growing the national game.



    Unlike other athletes at the OIympics, the New Zealand track cyclists could still compete in front of crowds at the Tokyo Games.

    The Velodrome is four hours away from Tokyo and all the cyclists will stay in a separate bubble.

    The city is currently in a state of emergency which doesn't apply to the area where the Velodrome is in.
