International rugby rolls into Napier as New Zealand and Georgia go head-to-head in another huge WFR Test Match at McLean Park on Friday, 2 October 2026. New Zealand return in the famous black jersey, this time facing a Georgian side dressed in red and arriving ready to bring their renowned physical approach to New Zealand soil. For the hosts, the challenge will be to establish tempo, create space and prevent the contest becoming the kind of bruising, close-quarter battle Georgia will relish.

The contrast promises something special. New Zealand's speed and attacking ambition against Georgia's power and confrontation. Black against red. Pacific rugby country against one of Europe's proud emerging forces. And beneath the lights at McLean Park, there will be nowhere to hide. Two nations enter. Eighty minutes decide the story.
