Wallabies aiming for history as they are ready to step up to All Blacks pack - Alaalatoa

Wallabies prop Allan Alaalatoa is refusing to back down from the All Blacks pack and is hoping to make history this week as they prepare for the opening Bledisloe Test.

The Wallabies landed in New Zealand last Friday and are eager to break a 19-year Bledisloe drought.

The 27-year-old believes the chance of making history excited the side as they build off from a 2-1 series win over France.

Alaalatoa says the All Blacks are a world-class team and has been the number one team for a while and they love playing at Eden Park as they have put a lot of great performances there.

He adds this is an opportunity for the group to do something that hasn't been done for a while that is to beat them on New Zealand soil and do it at Eden Park.

The Wallabies will face the All Blacks in the Bledisloe opener at 7.05pm this Saturday.
