Lions vs Invitational AU & NZ XV

Adelaide Oval will host the final Tour game before the first Test, a marquee match-up between the Lions and an invitational Australia-New Zealand combined team on 12 July in what shapes up to be something of a “fourth Test” on the Australian Tour.

It’s been over three decades since Australia and New Zealand joined forces on the rugby field – so make sure you’re here to be part of history!
