    2026 Bledisloe and Super Round in Perth?

    According to SMH:

    "..... Sources familiar with negotiations, who requested anonymity due to confidential nature of discussions, said the Anzac Day clash is now at an advanced stage of negotiation, with the WA government prepared to pay a lucrative sum to host the game at Optus Stadium.
    There was discussion about the first game being in 2025 but it is more likely to be in 2026, and the plans - and deal with the WA government - will also involve Super Round (the Magic Round of Super Rugby) being staged around it in the same week, meaning all players are in Perth at the same time......"

    We can live in hope

    I think Rugby Wrap teased that this was in discussions for 2025 a few months ago, so repeated rumours from different sources certainly add weight to the validity of it.

    I too hope it happens!
