The All Blacks will not be spending Christmas in quarantine after Rugby Australia and SANZAAR revised the Rugby Championship draw and brought forward the final Australia-New Zealand clash to the end of this month.

The Wallabies and All Blacks were due to meet in the last match of the tournament on December 12th, but under the current New Zealand regulations they have to complete two weeks in quarantine that would take place in Christmas.

The two teams will now square off in the Rugby Championship opener, which doubles as the third Bledisloe Cup match, on October 31st.

Meanwhile, The All Blacks and the Wallabies will be naming their teams for the Sunday clash today.

The All Blacks will meet the Wallabies at 3pm Sunday in the opening Bledisloe Cup match in Wellington.
