2025 Ashes Tour

good point! Traditionally they did pay France last. Just thought playing them first would create more media and hype for the England games.

Doubt we’d get 5 games but ideally they’d play NZ before they go and France before or after England games. If done well we could have a decent international season.

England V Australia x3
Pacific Cup - NZ, Tonga & Samoa tri-series.
Pacific Bowl - PNG V Fiji 2-3 game series.
WCQs - France, Cook Islands, South Africa & Jamaica.

Just need some warm ups and one-off tests to beef it up a bit more. France should be trying to playing both England & Australia before/after WCQs.
