All Blacks line up Munster clash

The New Zealand Rugby Union have confirmed the All Blacks will take on Munster during their European tour in November.

The fixture has been set for Tuesday, November 18 in Limerick after an invitation from the Irish RFU to mark the 30th anniversary of the province’s victory over the Kiwis and to officially open a renovated Thomond Park.

NZRU chief executive Steve Tew said: “We are delighted to be part of another chapter that also has commercial benefit for both teams.

“One of our aims is to find additional revenue to support the game in New Zealand. As rugby people, we’re glad to see it take the shape of a midweek match.”
