On a Saturday evening in Wellington, Ireland and the All Blacks meet for a third and deciding Test — a match that carries more than a scoreline. For Ireland, a nation that has never won a series on New Zealand soil, victory would mark a genuine shift in the order of world rugby, arriving at a moment when such confidence could shape a World Cup campaign. For New Zealand, defeat at home would not merely be a loss but a reckoning, deepening questions about a team and a coach still searching for the consistency that once defined them.
