<p>Sean Fitzpatrick said he wouldn't pick any Aussies in an Australasian team ....</p> -
<p>This reminds me of the injury struck aussie team that drew 18 all with us after getting beaten 22-0 the previous game. That team they rolled out due to injuries was horrible and we were on a streak then. Seems like we are getting better at getting that sort of stuff off our backs now so hopefully we win by 50 this game.</p>

<p>Wasn't that the reason?</p>

<p>And doesn't the 2000 Wellington game fall into "this century"? :think:</p> -

In 2000 I took my 4 & 2 year old sons to the Sydney Easter Show and we visited the Wallabies stand. They had the full set of cups back then.<br>
RWC, Bled, Cook etc and I remember saying to them "Treasure this moment lads because you will never see all these cups together in Australia again"<br>
Right so far..... -

Remember the constant references in their press to their " bulging trophy cabinet"? And how they seemed to keep inventing them? I think they still have the one they play Italy for ( snigger) . -

<p> </p>
<p>Do we have one for Italy?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I know besides Bledisloe we have South Africa (Mandela Plate), Argentina (Puma Cup), Wales (James Bevan Trophy), Ireland (Lansdowne Cup), Scotland (Hopetoun Cup), England (Cook Cup), France (Bicentennary Trophy), and BIL (Tom Richards Cup).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some of those ones even predate the glories of the Freedom Cup, Dave Gallaher Trophy, and Hillary Shield.</p> -

Fark some absolute legends in that photo. The ABs will be a shadow of the team they are once those guys all retire. -
