The Waitomo Chiefs Manawa squad for the 2023 Sky Super Rugby Aupiki season includes nine Black Ferns and six newcomers who will make their debut in the New Year. The new squad will defend the team’s title in the Sky Super Rugby Aupiki competition which celebrated its inaugural kick-off last year. Waitomo Chiefs Manawa head coach Crystal Kaua says the 2023 squad was “a great balance of youth and experience”. “The good human piece is vital in our selection. We want it to be competitive, but with love – the drive to be better, make each other better and make the team better. Our endgame is maximising the uniqueness of every player, creating an environment where people feel they belong and can play with freedom.” The new rookies are Bay of Plenty’s Azalleyah Maaka and Te Urupounamu McGarvey, Auckland’s Mererangi Paul, as well as Violet Hapi-Wise, Tynealle Fitzgerald and Merania Paraone.

Highlanders Super Rugby 2023: The 24-year-old Argentinian winger/fullback is currently with Michael Cheika’s Los Pumas on their UK and European tour. In July he had two outings for an Argentinian XV against Portugal and Georgia and has been playing in the French Top 14 competition for Bayonne. He is yet to play a full international. He is not the first Argentinian to further his rugby ambitions by playing Super Rugby, Pumas Captain Pablo Matera played for the Crusaders in 2022. Bogado is looking forward to the rugby and life experience. “I am extremely excited to be joining the Highlanders. To have the opportunity to play Super Rugby in New Zealand and to represent such a prestigious team is a dream for me. The move to New Zealand represents a fantastic challenge, and one I had to accept. New Zealand’s rugby culture and the New Zealand culture in general is something I greatly admire and I’m sure that this experience will help me to grow on and off the field. I want to continue

England host South Africa Rugby looking to end their autumn international schedule on a high heading into 2023 and the World Cup. Buoyed by the draw with New Zealand, Eddie Jones’ side enter the contest against the Springboks with added confidence after finding form late. The ‘Bomb Squad’ represent a difficult test for England and the arena champions might be determined to make a declaration after securing a far-wished victory over Italy last week, finishing a -sport losing streak with the agonising losses to France and Ireland. There is anxiety between the coaches too, with Jones performing to intention a shot at his counterpart Rassie Erasmus, who will complete a ban after a sequence of sarcastic tweets criticising officials.

Wales will face Australia Rugby at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday 26th November. This will be the fourth and final autumn international to be played by Wales in 2022. The Nov. 26 game against Wales, who were stunned by the minnows of Georgia on Saturday, could be crucial for Rennie’s future.

Overall, Wales and Wallabies Rugby have played each other on 44 occasions since their first meeting in 1908. The Wallabies have won 30 matches, whilst Wales have won 13 matches. There has also been one draw between the two sides. Wayne Pivac’s Wales future will be decided by a post-autumn review after Saturday’s final match against Australia.

ENG 25-25 NZ Rugby: New Zealand’s fast start, England’s fast finish

Image
Owen Farrell’s 100th England appearance looked set to fall flat, before England surged back in the final 10 minutes. England scored three tries in a stunning final eight minutes to salvage an extraordinary draw after being outplayed by New Zealand for much of their Autumn Nations Series match at Twickenham. The All Blacks scored two tries in the opening nine minutes, with Codie Taylor driving over at the back of a maul after Dalton Papali’i’s early intercept score. England 25-25 NZ Rugby at Twickenham Any hope England had of replicating their rapid start in Yokohama evaporated inside the first eight minutes. First, Papali’i raced in under the posts after flying out of the line at the back of a line-out to snaffle Jack van Poortvliet’s ponderous attempt to feed Farrell. The 21-year-old England scrumhalf, making only his third Test start, caught a glimpse of himself on the big screen as the camera cut to him under the posts. It was a moment to test the mettle of the most seasoned v

Owen Farrell celebrates Will Stuart’s second try which helped secured the draw

Image
In the space of eight breathless, mesmerizing minutes that sent Twickenham into raptures, Eddie Jones’ side belied their reputation as toothless game-chasers to force one of the most improbable draws in their history. Will Stuart had never scored a try for his country in 23 previous Tests and yet here, clamping the ball between his legs and going for broke, he scored two to erase a 19-point deficit to the All Blacks. The stadium veritably shook amid scenes of eye-popping, beer-throwing delirium. It was a giddying momentum shift, engineered with a final act of immaculate precision. What a curiosity of a team this is: maddeningly error-strewn for 72 minutes, then all but unstoppable for the rest. Even the final whistle brought a peculiar hybrid of emotions, with 81,000 fans pleading for England to drive on for victory, only for Marcus Smith  to kick the ball out to take the draw . Ian Foster, New Zealand’s coach, left little doubt as to what his players would have done in the circum
