In rugby union – the best players from Fiji, Tonga, Samoa and Papua New Guinea will play a game against the British and Irish Lions under a plan for their 2025 Australian tour. The Lions will play the Pacific Islands XV as well as an Anzac XV, featuring All Blacks and Wallabies, and one game each against the Waratahs, Reds and Brumbies, plus three Tests against the Wallabies.
