Throughout August 2007, various teams will be preparing for the Rugby World Cup in France with a short series of test matches, primarily in the Northern Hemisphere and involving the RBS Six Nations sides. In addition, South Africa will play one test in Scotland following the 2007 Tri Nations and Argentina one test in their home country and one in Wales. The tests are effectively a replacement for the usual Autumn international series in November which does not take place in World Cup years.
