The rugby record books side is with the All Blacks to beat the Wallabies in the second Rugby World Cup semifinal on Sunday.

They have not lost to the Wallabies at Eden Park since 1986.

The last time they lost to anyone there was to France in 1994.

They have the best record in international rugby of any team, with a winning record against every team they have played.

Yet they won the first World Cup tournament in 1987 and have not won since.

The Wallabies have won two World Cups, in 1991 and 1999.

They have defeated the All Blacks both times they have met in the tournament.

Past RWC winners have gone through the pool game unbeaten with the All Blacks the only side this year that has reached the semifinal without a loss.

But the other factor the Wallabies are happy with is the fact that they have beaten the defending champion in the quarterfinal which gives them an edge that they can also make it to the final.

The first semifinal of the Rugby World cup tomorrow at 8pm will see France meet Wales and at 8pm Sunday the All Blacks meet the Wallabies and the live commentaries of both matches can be heard on our sister station, Viti FM with Malakai Veisamasama and Ilivasi Tabua.
