Top All Blacks prop Owen Franks will be making his 100th test appearance against the Wallabies this Saturday.

Franks made his debut against Italy in 2009 at the age of 21, becoming the third youngest prop to be selected for the All Blacks.

He started against Ireland in the first Test of 2010, joining brother Ben in becoming the first set of siblings to start a Test for the All Blacks since the Brookes in 1997.

He is the ninth All Blacks Centurion.

Franks has won the 2011 and 2015 Rugby World Cup with New Zealand and he is yet to score a try for them.

The All Blacks will play the Wallabies at 7.35pm this Saturday in the second Bledisloe Cup match.
