Three-game Bledisloe Cup series looms as new deal struck

Wallabies set for two Bledisloe Cup games at MCG by 2029 under new deal

In short:

The Wallabies will play New Zealand at the MCG in both 2027 and 2029 under a deal between Rugby Australia and the Victorian government.

There is no confirmation that the Bledisloe Cup will permanently expand to a three-game series, but the Test in 2029 will be an additional game in the series.

Next year's MCG Test in July will come ahead of the Rugby World Cup, where Australia and New Zealand will also meet in the group stage.
