WELLINGTON (Reuters) - All Blacks coach Ian Foster is open to playing Australia's rugby league world champion Kangaroos in a 14-a-side hybrid game in December, but his priority remains getting as many test matches as possible for New Zealand this year.

The All Blacks and Kangaroos are among the most successful international teams in any sport, dominating their respective codes for much of the past three decades.
