5 November 2026 - Following July’s fiery campaign across the southern hemisphere, the world’s top 12 rugby nations now head north this month for a defining second leg of the Nations Championship, streaming live and exclusive on Stan Sport.

The Wallabies charge will kick off with a fierce clash against England at Twickenham, on Monday, 9 November from 1:30am AEDT. The Wallabies then travel to Edinburgh to take on Scotland at Murrayfield, before wrapping up the pool-stage fixtures against Wales at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

The tournament culminates with a historic Finals Weekend at Twickenham across three days from 28–30 November AEDT, as the conference winners meet in the grand final while the remaining nations contest ranking play-offs. Both the Wallabies and England currently sit third in their respective conferences, setting up a crucial clash as both sides look to improve their standings heading into the Finals Weekend.

Australia’s 33-man touring squad features an exciting blend of experience and youth, led by the return of \u200b 95-Test veteran Kurtley Beale, who is pushing for his first Test appearance since 2021. Rising halfback Teddy Wilson, son of 79-cap Wallaby David Wilson, has also earned a call-up and is in line to make his Test debut on tour. While Twickenham remains one of international rugby's toughest assignments, the Wallabies will draw confidence from their thrilling 42–37 triumph at the venue in 2024.

Meanwhile, Steve Borthwick has been forced into changes ahead of Sunday’s opener, with Ben Spencer and Harry Randall drafted in after injuries ruled out Northampton scrum-halves Alex Mitchell and Archie McParland. Despite the disruption, England will be determined to make an early statement against Australia in front of a packed home crowd.

Coverage of England v Wallabies will be led by Stan Sport’s expert commentary team, featuring former Wallabies captains Michael Hooper and Matt Burke, dual-code international Allana Ferguson, and commentary lead by Wallabies Legend Morgan Turinui and Sean Maloney. Former Wallabies great Tim Horan will be on the sideline at Twickenham providing pitchside analysis and interviews.

Several heavyweight clashes headline the opening weekend, with reigning Rugby World Cup champions, the Springboks launching their campaign against Italy, on Saturday 7 November from 10:30PM AEDT. At Murrayfield, Scotland face a major test against the All Blacks on Sunday 8 November from 12:15AM AEDT, while Northern Hemisphere conference leaders France come up against the physical force that is \u200b Fiji on Sunday 8 November from 7:00 AEDT. With valuable championship points on the line, all three fixtures could prove pivotal in shaping the road to Twickenham’s Finals Weekend.
