A couple of New Zealand-born protagonists in Australian colours believe the Wallabies can end their 34-year drought at Eden Park in tomorrow's Bledisloe Cup Test.
Wallabies Kiwi coach Dave Rennie has no fears about the venue even though the Australians have lost 16 times in a row to New Zealand in Auckland dating back to 1986.
Rennie says he can't speak from a Test perspective but he has coached a lot of Chiefs teams against the Blues at Eden Park and they have never lost one.
He says they are well aware of the task ahead but they have prepared well and made subtle changes to their game.
New Zealand-born Reds hooker Brandon Paenga-Amosa left his birth country at a young age and came through the ranks in Sydney, where he also played rugby league.
He comes into the XV in place of Folau Fainga'a, who's been held accountable for the Wallabies' poor lineout effort in the drawn first Test at Wellington.
Paenga-Amosa will play his first Test since the 2018 Rugby Championship against South Africa in Port Elizabeth and will do so in front of some of his family, who will be at Eden Park.
The All Blacks play the Wallabies at 3pm tomorrow at Eden Park.
