- This is the opening game of the 2005 Tri-Nations rugby league competition at Telstra Stadium, Sydney. The Kiwis entered the match after a disappointing 2004 campaign, under the stewardship of inexperienced coach Brian McClennan and weakened by injuries to upcoming stars like Benji Marshall and Sonny Bill Williams. Stacey Jones was playing in what he planned to be his second-to-last test match and the side was captained by Ruben Wiki. The Kangaroos were looking to build on their 2004 Tri-Nations triumph and 2005 Anzac test success, buoyed by the legendary pairing of Lockyer and Johns in the halves, and Golden Boot winner Anthony Minichiello at fullback.
Teams:
New Zealand: 1 Brent Webb, 2 Jake Webster, 3 Paul Whatuira, 4 Clinton Toopi, 5 Manu Vatuvei, 6 Nigel Vagana, 7 Stacey Jones, 8 Paul Rauhihi, 9 Lance Hohaia, 10 Ruben Wiki (c), 11 David Kidwell, 12 Frank Pritchard, 13 Louis Anderson

What a classic kiwi-Aussie test. Full of talent in both teams.One of the best kiwi forward packs I've ever seen!. Wiki,Rauhihi,kidwell,Pritchard, Asatasi, Cayless.solamona.Faiumu, etc.
Their grunt in, both defence and attack was relentless!. Inspiring,history making stuff!. The little general jumped on their backs and drove the team around like the pro he was.And the rest of all the classy and brilliant backs all stood up and delivered big time!. Toopi, Vagana, Webb, Whatuwira, Vatuvei, etc were magnificent!. I loved watching this again after all these years. Right up there, with all the great kiwi wins over the Kangaroos.Who i might add, are, the grestest Rugby league team in the world,and who always wiil be, because of there huge talent pool of players in the Origin teams.And there history of dominance for so long!. Long live the tran-Tasman rivalry of the big brother, and the little brother across the ditch!. Give em a tast of Kiwi!...
@M You don't know that.
This kiwi team is full of legends ❤
🥱
What a game...the speed of both sides! The champion Australians against a very tough, a very fast New Zealand team. I’d pay to watch this live. As I’m typing this ....what a try by Brent Tate!
God bless you uploader
Lockyer and Johns what a combination
Yes indeed. Go watch the following year. Johns7. Thurston6. Lockyer 1. Buderus 9.
In his prime Toopi was a absolute monster!! best centre in the game
Na mate. Greg inglis is better and a few others
@@dleigh9997 gotta give Toopi credit for his 2nd try. That was pretty good
@@mickeyballoons3963 yes 100% toopi was unreal ine of the best
@@dleigh9997 and his 3rd try wasn't bad either! I would rate him as one of the best kiwi centres ever.
@J. Al the gayest sport
can you please upload New Zealand vs Australia 2005 Rugby League Tri Nations Final at Eden Park I wanna watch that game
Great Coach like his Dad needed NZ to have more faith in him and he would have delivered.
100% in agreement with that statement
I love how the smugness of Jason Costigan has been quelled in this match
I'd say utterly smothered
Anyone know the song that is played from 2:08?
I was at this game as a 7 year old !
Awesome victory for the underdog Kiwis!
Brent Webb is like "Is this your king?" 32:22
Webb must be the greatest of all time 😆
Webb is surely better then Billy Slater 🤣

Locky chosen captain ahead of Johns.
Toopi he outplayed the aussie stars the beast
Still remember this game. This was the same tournament where we beat them 25-0 in the finals.
@MANCHESTER UNITED What's your point?
MANCHESTER UNITED So what’s your fcking point?
The officiating in this test was shocking!!
Classic
try to gasnier at 48 mins was a mistake ... his back/arse was out before he grounded it.
Is this the game where Kidwell leathered Mason
Willie mason didn't play this game
Hahaha waltzing Matilda John's locker what happen boys our kiwi team like the aussies would say that's gold
Full of legends. Kiwis n Kangaroos. Kiwis too fast, too good on the night. Mean game.
Stacey Jones little man but big heart great player
21:00 and 43:00 and 53:40 58:54
I came here for sbw
love you rugby union
Its rugby league haha
I have lived in US for 30 years never saw Johns play read he was some great player ? All time great. Where did that come from ? He is a fumbler. That little bloke form Queensland is a far better halfback.
You should stay in the US cuz clearly you don’t know anything about rugby league. Johns is an all time great. Could do everything on the footy field
I watch many sports. One thing thst still baffles me to this day is how you guys wear a motorbike helmet and so much padding. I'd rip that xxxxx off real quick
Bitch Aussie oi oi oi ha
Why can’t commentators pronounce Vagana correctly. It’s not that hard.
Ahhh costigan and halligan. Crap commentators. And as for "Wopo", he's the wally Lewis of NZ commentary. Trys so hard to be an "intellectual" commentator. Ends up like a spaghetti mess of words. Lol.
