England to play All Blacks in November
From correspondents in London, England
January 24, 2008
RUGBY World Cup runners-up England will play New Zealand in a Test at Twickenham on November 29, subject to approval from the International Rugby Board.
England open their November series of four matches against the Pacific Islanders before playing Australia and South Africa on consecutive weekends.

The Pom's are in for a bashing if they are playing the Pacific Islands first
does w.a get a test this year?
and if so has it been announced who we are playing?
Yeah, we're playing SA on June 19th (I think)
How many tests are NZ playing this year, Four Tri-Nations matches, Hong Kong, Twickenham, and surely they've arranged at least one slaughter series at home before they get into the hard stuff!
i thought it was 6 tri-nations games, playing each country 3 times this year??
Oooh yeah youre right Jargan, It's a non-World Cup year isn't it
Sorry, resetting brain to 2008 mode...............
.....
I'll get back to you!
When is the Wallabies test, I am going to UK later this year, scheduled to get into London 23 November, may need to skip a few places so I can get thier early enough for the Wallabies...
I had it in my head that they were taking on the Irish once and English twice in June. They still seem to be sorting out the EOYT, but you'd expect probably four matches...make it about 13/14 for the year (3 in June, 6 in TN, 3 or 4 on EOYT, 1 in HK)?Quote:
