Spider Flower – Cleome

The 2022 end of year rugby union tests, also referred to as the 2022 Autumn internationals in the Northern Hemisphere and the Autumn Nations Series for marketing purposes, are a number of rugby union test matches contested approximately during the Autumn months of October and November, primarily involving countries from the Northern Hemisphere hosting those from the Southern Hemisphere. Also involved in matches are those from second-tier teams. These international games count towards World Rugby's ranking system, with a team typically playing from two to four matches during this period.
