All Blacks team naming live updates: Scott Robertson's squad for France series opener revealed
Scott Robertson names his first All Blacks 23 of the year, to face France at Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium on Saturday night All Blacks v France - all you need to know All Blacks v France, First test, 7.05pm, Saturday, Forsyth Barr Stadium, Dunedin All you need to know as Scott Robertson's side take on France in the first match of the 2025 season. France have won their past three tests against the All Blacks, stretching back to 2021 and are aiming for four straight over New Zealand for the first time. They haven't won on New Zealand soil against the All Blacks since 2009. All Blacks v France history Played - 64 All Blacks won - 48 France won - 15 Draws - 1 All Blacks points scored - 1663 France points scored - 898 All Blacks v France - What happened last time? The last time the two sides met was during last year's Northern Tour, with France edging out a 30-29 victory. It was a performance that offered so much promise but deteriorated to a deflating defeat in Paris for the All Blacks. The All Blacks weren't helped by several perplexing decisions from Georgian referee Nika Amashukeli – and one baffling TMO decision for a neck roll from replacement prop Ofa Tu'ungafasi – but so, too, were they their own worst enemies with multiple errors proving costly. Following wins in 2023 and in 2021, France have recorded three victories in succession over the All Blacks. All Blacks v France line-ups All Blacks side: Advertise with NZME.

Veteran radio journalist Garry Ahern dies
Garry Ahern finishes his last sports bulletin on Morning Report in 2015. Photo: RNZ Veteran sports broadcaster Garry Ahern has died aged 75. Ahern joined Radio New Zealand in 1969, retiring in 2015, and specialised in golf reporting while presenting sports bulletins on Morning Report for two decades. He first joined the New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation in 1969 (later RNZ) as an accounts clerk in Whanganui. Speaking on Morning Report, he explained how his mother was responsible for getting him into broadcasting after he had spent a couple of years at Victoria University in Wellington. "I came home from golf one day and my mother said she'd heard an advertisement on the local radio station for an accountants clerk and that certainly wasn't me, but I thought broadcasting could be quite interesting and that's how it all started." A few years later he landed a sports journalist role in Wellington and went on to cover 14 Commonwealth and Olympic Games. But his undoubted highlight was covering the New Zealand golf team's win at the Eisenhower Trophy in 1992. The team included Michael Campbell, who went on to win the US Open in 1995. In 2013, Ahern's contribution to sports journalism was recognised when he was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by the National Sports Journalists Association. The award citation described him "as the consummate broadcasting journalist who asks the right questions, gets the information and presents it knowledgably and in an entertaining fashion". Ahern died on Tuesday surrounded by his family.
