The 2008 end of year rugby tests, also known as the Autumn internationals saw Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina, the Pacific Islanders and Canada tour the northern hemisphere. The tour ended with the traditional 'final challenge' Barbarians match, against Australia, which was the first rugby union Test at the new Wembley Stadium. New Zealand and Australia also contested a Bledisloe Cup match outside of either country for the first time; the match was played in Hong Kong with the hope of raising rugby's profile in China. New Zealand recorded a second straight grand slam tour.

  • "Autumn International" è il modo con cui nell'emisfero nord si indica l'insieme delle tournée delle nazionali di rugby a 15 dell'emisfero Nord in Europa nel mese di novembre (nell'emisfero sud vengono invece ovviamente chiamati "Tour di primavera", vista la stagione in corso in quelle terre).
