It's time for the All Blacks and the Wallabies to go again...after suffering a shocking defeat, the New Zealand All Blacks will be hoping to beat Australia in the home leg of the Bledisloe Cup or face its first tournament loss in over 15 years.
The Bledisloe Cup is an annual rugby competition between the New Zealand All Blacks and the Wallabies of Australia. Typically played as a three-match series, this year's program is condensed into two games (and Australia won the first bout) to give teams time to prepare for the Rugby World Cup in early September.
The New Zealand All Blacks are Bledisloe Cup favorites every year, having won 47 times compared to Australia's 12 victories. The Wallabies haven't won since 2002 before a five-year winning streak turned into 16 straight losses. However, the Australian Wallabies thoroughly dismantled New Zealand in Game 1 with a major 46 to 26 victory.
