Wallabies confident in breaking Eden Park curse

September 27, 2025

The Wallabies say their progress across a string of big games in 2025 has them primed to secure a first win over the All Blacks on New Zealand soil since 2001 in the Test in Auckland on Sept 27.

The last time they won at Eden Park was in 1986, but Wilson says his team have proved they can handle the big occasion to end their 22-match losing streak at New Zealand’s famed stronghold.

After being written off ahead of the series against the British and Irish Lions, Wilson’s team showed marked improvement and came close to winning the series.

Beaten at the death in the decisive second Test in Melbourne, they dominated the third match in Sydney.

A momentous 38-22 win over the world champions South Africa — their first victory at Johannesburg’s Ellis Park in 62 years — was further proof of the progress made under coach Joe Schmidt.
