The Rugby Championship returns as the four best southern hemisphere sides look to gain some vital momentum heading into the World Cup.
In the 2022 edition, New Zealand claimed their third successive title, with a final-round victory against Australia meaning the Kiwis edged out second-place South Africa thanks to bonus points after both sides won four of their six games.
With the FIFA Women's World Cup also taking place in Australia and New Zealand in July-August the availability of venues has been a challenging one.
