The Wallabies have finally snapped their Bledisloe Cup losing streak, toppling the All Blacks 23‑18 in a thriller at a rain‑drenched Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.
The third Test of the series might have been a dead but Michael Cheika's men had a point to prove to their trans‑Tasman enemies ‑ and they did it, ending a run of seven straight defeats to score their first win over New Zealand since August 2015.
Australia scored three tries to two, showing new‑found grit to close out the match as New Zealand mounted a late rally in front of 45,107 supporters who braved the constant rain.
New Zealand beat Australia 54‑34 in Sydney and 35‑29 in Dunedin during the Rugby Championship and so were already assured of retaining the Bledisloe Cup for a 15th successive season.
