All Blacks vs France Rugby Score, Live Updates & How To Watch

The New Zealand All Blacks and France Rugby will open their 2025 test campaigns on July 5 at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:05 a.m. ET, with live coverage in the United States available on FloRugby and the FloSports app beginning at 2:55 a.m. ET.

France has named five uncapped players in its starting XV, including fly-half Joris Segonds, wing Tom Spring, and back row Alexandre Fischer. The team will be without Antoine Dupont, who continues to recover from a knee injury sustained during the Six Nations. Fabien Galthie’s selection mixes veterans like Gaël Fickou with newcomers across the forward pack and backline.

In contrast, the All Blacks have opted for experience in Scott Robertson’s first official match as head coach. Beauden, Jordie and Scott Barrett all start, joined by Ardie Savea, Rieko Ioane, and Will Jordan. Damian McKenzie is named among the reserves.

New Zealand and France first played each other in 1906. Since then, the All Blacks have won 48 of the 64 meetings. France has won 15 times and the two nations have drawn once.

In recent history, Damian McKenzie has tallied 47 points in six matches against France, including three tries. Beauden Barrett has been even more prolific, scoring 61 points across 10 appearances with four tries. Both are expected to contribute again this summer as New Zealand looks to set the tone early in its 2025 campaign.

— All Blacks (@AllBlacks) July 4, 2025Why Ardie Savea Is The Best Rugby Player In The World In 2025

For nearly a year– since the first list published in 2024— FloRugby writer Philip Bendon painstakingly poured over the tape to compile the top players throughout the globe.

And at the end of the day, he couldn’t put anyone ahead of New Zealand All Blacks star Ardie Savea, the 2023 World Rugby Player of the Year who begins his international season on July 5 against France.

“As ever when selecting a player list, a level of subjectivity factors in,” Bendon said. “Now thirteen years into his professional career, Ardie Savea is at a level of influence on a par with the great Richie McCaw.”
