Back in the days when the Wallabies was Australia's Team & Rugby Union was on par with their rival codes at times even eclipsing them with tv ratings even setting the crowd attendance record at Stadium Australia now ANZ has not been matched or broken from other codes 109,874 in Bledisloe 2000 what a game!!

i was 11 and i never forget this game, i was devastated, still am

What a match, what a moment and what a send off for the great career of Eales. I would hate to be NZ on this night, they played a super 2nd half and deserved to win as much as the wallabies. Thanks for posting Hike:)

I like watching old matches. Beautiful rugby and very high level.

The best of the Bledisloe Cup. Nice to see some classic rugby videos as well.

I cannot believe this was the last time we won. I cracked out my hand -knitted # 5 jersey last night before the game. I had a good feeling and wanted to mark the occassion of having a Queensland Lock as Wallabies captain again. It was all good.

PROJECT DELTA Maybe not now, but in the golden years of the late 1990's early 2000's. These days the sport suffers terribly from a lack of 'grass roots' development unlike in NZ where they do things on this level perfectly, but the ARU just won't learn!

Love the "plays only" editing.

This was a great night! Jumping up and down in my lounge room!

Great post, thanks.

ahh the good old days when our 10 could tackle. some textbook technique by larkham in this game.

Great upload thx! Strange watching a Wallaby team that is good.

One of the best tri nation match for the wallabies

Aussies always go on about how they don't take Rugby seriously (after they lose to the AB's of course), but when the Wallabies are playing well, beating the All Blacks, & holding that Bledisloe, I don't think there's a more passionate Rugby crowd in the World. It was a sea of gold of 80,000 - 100,000+ people in those days & watching them all singing Waltzing Matilda before the game was one of the great spectacles in sport, coming from a Kiwi. Why? Oh, Why don't you do that anymore?

Gregan was bloody great. To good for the officials. Even they couldnt keep up.

I didn't watch rugby back then but this austalia seemed to be so much better than the current team.

There was very nearly a Stephen Larkham pancake after Jonah's kick chase. 🤣

Man do I pine for the days when matches were like this.

Having 5 Super sides has seriously destroyed Wallabie quality. Since the Force and Rebels were introduced they havent had the Bledisloe since 2002.

That's where Australian Rugby and the Wallabies have gone wrong since 2003. Super rugby was a much better comp when it was Super 12, top 4 finals format, 3 Australian teams where the brumbies and Reds had the majority of the Wallaby players therefore a cohesive unit at test level. Next thing Super Rugby get expanded with the likes of the Force and Rebels and slowly but surely Australia suffered as the years tick by. 21 years later, the Bledisloe yet to be seen on Australian shores. That pretty much tells the story..

@frankisfunny2007 the positions, and what they particularly do? What are caps as well?

We have been hearing that for more than a decade maaaaaate

The All Blacks did Australia and every other nation we played a huge favour by continually picking Anton Oliver. He couldn't find a jumper on Beachy Head!!!

mean upload bro!

I wonder if Eales' post-match interview contained his usual talk about 'the composure'...

A great win - setting John Eales off in style. Sucks for the AB's, but perhaps if they hadn't infringed so much at the breakdown in those last ten mins fate would have been on their side.

What a way for Wallabies Captain John Eales to Finish his career to ensure The Tri Nations Trophy remains on Aussie soil

Yes you can carry the ball as long as you like, as far as you can, but must pass it back behind you, or laterally to other players, left or right. If the ball does not travel backwards, or laterally in a pass to another player, its called a forward pass, results in a scrum ( contest between the forward players to restart the game.) The team that won the penalty 'feeds' the ball into the middle of the scrum from the side of it. A try is 5 pts and done by grounding the ball in the in-goal area, or

"Toutai Kefu! Did he get it?! That's the match-winner!"

Real soon?? 9 Months later you're still waiting... ABs reign supreme brother...

Toutai Kefu scored the winning try.

Too bad bro, maybe next year. Sad when a league convert shows the most promise. Although Ashley Cooper always plays his heart out. Hope Wobbles come good for the sake of Rugby, and the sake of the Bledisloe.

great stuff

Im not sure what is worse, the ref, the commentators or Anton Olivers lineout throws

(pt 2) on the Try line, or ground it at the base of the goal post pads too, but its hardly ever done. Also, you score a Try if you slide with enough momentum across the line, from outside the in-goal area. Either way, its still only 5 pts for the Try. But after you get a Try, you are given a chance to kick the ball through the top half of the H-shape goal gaining another 2 pts if successful (called the Conversion) This kick taken from a position dictated by where you grounded the ball for a Try

Flavell and Maxwell , two players the AB's never got the best out off

Yep the wallabies dominated the AB's after winning the WC in 1999. two years of domination 2000 and 2001. Wayne Smith quit as AB coach at the end of 2001.

A great game from back in the day....I am an English fan...they call us whinging Poms but I have never heard such whinging from commentators lol

the bledisole cup by that game was already decided

Just watching this n realised how many Tongan players on this match Lomu,Howellet, Alatini,Hoeft for NZ n Kefu,Smith for Aus

was this the last time they won anything ?

@@RADCOMJ1 I agree, like I mean the Allblacks I felt back then were kinda ina rebuilding stage, they were okay but not anything like they are these days. like that Australian team were great but I feel there were only us and them that were any good in them days, just Australian were a tad better, more experienced and were smart, ABs at times not so much, the ABS under McCaws leadership of a few years ago probably would of beaten them but the game has changed since then though, eras are different, but they would of found it harder to win the bledisloe now hence why its been so long

Love watching this sport from North America. I would rather watch any one else play than the Australians mostly due to the biased announcing when they play at home, so I skip to the end and if they lose I'll watch it otherwise I move on to watch a full game country leagues or the women play.

Anton oliver's poor throwing cost nz the match. I forgot how inaccurate he was at times. Great game from both sides though

more like whats wrong with the aussie scrum 7 man v 8 and they weren't destroyed, impressive

lol - 'Jonah diffuses his own Bomb'

and how as the last 10 years gone for you ?

Watching the last 5 minutes is like a horror show for All Black lineouts , I mean how many goes did we give Aus due to our complete inability to win our own lineouts.

the forget,kiwis won in 2000 sydney,change name to have forgot

Love it when the all blacks get what a bit of what they give out stamping

Wallabies i have to admit were a far better side in 2000 and 2001 than the ABs.Wayne Smith just had no idea as head coach. Set peices frpm the ABs were just awful.Oliver was the worst lineout thrower ive ever seen wear an AB jersey.Lineout in general was dysfunctional. Tony Brown just played way too many games for the ABs while Carlos Spensor a far superior player couldnt get a look in .Blackadder and Thorne had privlidged lives under Wayne Smith .They were never AB quality.

Amazing as well the ABs spent the last 15 mins trapped in their own half and conceded two tries. It wax masterful , the Wallabies forced the ABs to clear from their own 22 multiple times . BUT the ABs losing their own line out with 2mins to go on the half way line via another terrible Oliver throw contributed heavily.

Man just thinking that All Black side was pretty average back then. Troy Flavell just gave away penalties.Same for Cribb. In fact the forward pack was pretty crap all round.

Robshaw would have gone for the penalty at 78 mins.

Hang on. If we won the bledisloe in ‘00 and we’d won the first game of the 2 game series in ‘01 then doesn’t that mean the bledisloe was already secured going into this match? I’m just a kid but I always thought this moment was great because it won us the Bledisloe... guess not

The win was to give John Eales a Bledisloe clean sweep and to win a Tri-Nations championship in his last ever test match. 🙂

As a Kiwi i have to admit looking back the Aussies really had our measure between 98 and 2003. Didnt help that NZ had some weired coaches in Hart and Wayne Smith and Mitchell. Wayne we know now is more assistant than head coach. Deans was the real coach rather than Mitchell. Deans made some awful decisions. Dropping Cullen and Merts . I never rated Hart. Should have been sacked after 98 !!

Wallabies where at their greatest back in 1998 to 2003 and now they aren’t that much of a decent team

This was one of the best Wallabie sides ever. Over 600caps and as a kiwi its hard sayig it but this side was better than us from 98 through to 2002.. Herbert and Grey were class in the centres. Bourke solid. Gregan and Larkham the best halves combinatiom ever. NZ had dodgy Flavell and Cribb . Tain Randell should have been out of the side after 1999.Leon Macdonald at fullback was pretty stale Anton Oliver was the worst lineout thrower in the history of NZ hookers.

no there not,not with the piss weak forward pack they have, they may have a good backline but that doesn't mean jack if your foward pack can't function properly thats why they keep getting smashed by teams like the mighty world champion all blacks.

Anton Oliver's throwing was awful!
