Old enemies take rivalry to new pastures
Independent on Saturday
|January 24, 2026
THE world champion Springboks will make some serious cash in September when they take on fierce rivals New Zealand in Baltimore, USA.
There are several facets to this game - it is the final Test of this year’s four-Test series against the All Blacks, dubbed Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry Tour, but it is also a money spinner for the two teams as well as a marketing exercise for international governing body World Rugby.
The USA is hosting the 2031 Rugby World Cup, and the event needs some hype in a country where tugby barely registers on the sporting radar. Who better to exhibit the game of rugby than the double - World Cup-winning Springboks and their Old Foe, the All Blacks?
