The All Blacks are getting ready for their biggest test of their end-of-year tour against Ireland.

The All Blacks will be without Beauden Barrett and Codie Taylor in Dublin, in a rematch of last year’s quarterfinal.

Meanwhile, Formula 1 drivers have hit out at FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem over controversies about swearing in press conferences.

Ben Sulaymen has come under fire for calling drivers ‘rappers’ after Max Verstappen was fined for swearing in Singapore to describe his car.
