Hong Kong Bledisloe Test confirmed

The fourth Bledisloe Cup rugby Test in Hong Kong will go ahead at the end of October.

The New Zealand, Australian and Hong Kong rugby unions have confirmed the All Blacks and Wallabies will clash at Hong Kong Stadium on 30 October.

The fixture had been in doubt due to low ticket pre-sales.

NZRU chief executive Steve Tew says the match has already broken even following ticket sales topping 14,000 this week.

He says one of their main concerns was for a number of genuine fans who had already bought tickets and booked flights to Hong Kong.
