This week on Rugby Direct, we're in wine country in Mendoza counting down to the first test of Rugby World Cup year for the All Blacks - an assignment against Argentina.
Elliott and Liam debate the likely starting side for the ABs and how the bench might look for the test as well.
Before we get to that though, we need to discuss the new Blues coaching appointment and world rugby's new competition, which is not being run by World Rugby. We also cast our eyes over the Black Ferns and the New Zealand under-20s as well.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
