Well the historical facts state the exact opposite. The last time the wallabies had the Bledisloe was during the 2-game era. Since it has been 3 and 4 games they've only managed to win 1 game out of 9000.
If anything the wallabies have gotten worse since there have been 4 games. I think most people would agree that the 01 wallabies side is A LOT better than the mob running around now.
Most would also agree Australia peak around RWC

This proves that statsistics are sh1t
Using statistics, the allblacks haven't been the best in the world since 1987 when they last won a world cup.
It makes sense that if you play the best team more often, you get better. I think the wallabies have improved over the season and are playing a game that is lightyears ahead of when deans took over.
I think they'll prove it this weekend by sending the allblacks home with a "just rogered without vass" look on their faces
Well first of all Connolly was the coach, if my cat Vanilla tookover as head coach the wallabies would be light years a head of how he left them in 07!
The only way the wallabies would win on Saturday is if they have an XV full of Westralians like Pocock, Sharpe & McCalman. It'd probably help if O'Connor wasn't playing out of position aswell.
Knuckles is a friend of mine so I'm insulted.
Deans has our lads heading in the right direction. The first 40 minutes of the last 2 tests have been the best rugby I've seen from a wallaby team in a long time and possibly ever.
The wallabies will kick some allblack anus this weekend. It'll be pretty to watch the kiwis turn on Henry as the realisation sets in that we are ready to upset your RWC party.
Kiwis are the worlds greatest chokers. The Shakespearean tragedy never becomes tiresome to watch.
The last 2 games have just shown the problems of Deans though mate.
Ever since 07 the major problem with Deans' wallabies is that they can not string 80 minutes of Rugby together. They played an awesome 39mins against the boks last week, and then let in 50billion points!
IF the wallabies win this weekend it'll be because of this whole topic - more games. 5 changes to the allblacks that would not happen if Rugby wasn't turning into Cricket.
It should go back to 2 games so if you do win it, it actually means something. You aren't just beating an 'experimental' side where Henry is playing Dagg out of position and Cruden at 10, even though Delany was dropped because he was too small for 10 when Cruden is shorter and weighs less!
Get rid of the world cup too and bring back tours!![]()
That's pretty insulting saying that the only reason we could beat you is if you are tired or playing an 'experimental' side.
If anyone should be tired its us having just played two and made the journey back from South Africa. You guys have had the last few weeks off to recouperate.
As for being an 'experimental' side. Boo bloody hoo. Dagg out of position and Cruden at 10 is nothing compared to our injury dramas. We have Polota-Nau, Alexander, Horwill, Palu, Ioane and a handful of other quality players out. In our backline we have as many players playing out of position as we have playing in position.
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
I think it is pretty safe to say that there are always reasons for a win and excuses for a loss, just depends whose colours you were wearing.
It does seem more often than not that the line from the AB faithful is that “the opposition didn’t win, we lost” though.
"Bloody oath we did!"
