Perth will now get the third game on August 28th, meaning Wellington loses its game originally scheduled for that date. Wellington also loses the Rugby Championship game against Argentina on September 18th as the All Blacks will remain in Australia for their two games against the Pumas. NZR CEO Mark Robinson said rescheduling the matches had been challenging, particularly having to move the two tests out of Wellington.
