The Eddie Jones era continues the chase for its first win when the underdog Wallabies try to break their 21-year Bledisloe Cup drought against the All Blacks at the MCG, on July 29 from 7:30 pm on Nine and 9Now.
The All Blacks remain the gold standard in the international arena and will be showing Australia no mercy on their way to the Rugby World Cup in September.
Jones has made a raft of team changes to the Wallabies lineup for the MCG fixture, where the Wallabies points scoring will depend on outside backs Marika Koroibete, Mark Nawaqanitawase and Andrew Kellaway plus the new halves combination of Carter Gordon and Tate McDermott.
In commentary for Nine’s Wide World of Sports are Tim Horan, Drew Mitchell and Justin Harrison, All Blacks dual World Cup winner Sonny Bill Williams, former international Morgan Turinui, caller Sean Maloney, hosts Nick McArdle and Michael Atkinson, plus dual international Allana Ferguson on the panel.
