BACKGROUND
The Wallabies are Australia’s national men’s rugby union team. The team played its first rugby international in 1899 but didn’t become known as the Wallabies until they toured the British Isles in 1908.
Branded “the Rabbits” by the English press, the players decided their new nickname would not stick, and defiantly declared themselves “the Wallabies” before going on to win 33 of a possible 39 tour matches. The headline victory, a 9-3 triumph over England gave birth to a legend.
Since then, the team have won the Rugby World Cup twice, lifting the William Webb Ellis Cup in 1991 and 1999. The Wallabies compete annually in the Bledisloe Cup against the All Blacks and the Rugby Championship against the All Blacks, South Africa and Argentina, as well as other annual events and international fixtures.
