Kiwis and Kiwi Ferns to play another double header

11:55 am on 25 February 2019

The Kiwis and the Kiwis Ferns will play a double header against their Australian counterparts in Wollongong on Labour Day in October.

The Kiwis beat the Kangaroos 26-24 at Mount Smart stadium when the two sides last met, which was also a double header, in Auckland in October.

The Kiwi Ferns lost to the Jillaroos by the same score.

The last time the New Zealand men's team beat the Kangaroos in Australia was in 2015.

The Kiwis next test is against Tonga in June.
