Tri Nations Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Tri Nations Series is an annual international Rugby Union series held between Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Since the inception of the Tri Nations series, the games played in it between Australia and New Zealand also determine the winner of the Bledisloe Cup each year. In 2006, a third round of fixtures will be added to the Tri Nations as a result of a comprehensive television deal between SANZAR and broadcasters in the United Kingdom and the three SANZAR countries. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Tri_Nations_Series   (807 words)

Rugby League Tri-Nations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The competition was inspired by the rugby union Tri Nations Series. The Tri-Nations is a rugby league tournament involving the top three nations in the sport: Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain. It is relatively new concept, though it can be seen as a logical continuation of the early world cup structure, in which the best teams in the world play in a round robin tournament leading to a final. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Rugby_League_Tri-Nations   (465 words)

Selfish Aussies threaten Tri-Nations - Breaking News - http://www.theage.com.au News that the powerful National Rugby League clubs are to debate the future of the Tri-Nations Series amid fears of "burn-out" by their leading players' is a smack in the eye for tournament organisers. The series has been included in the international calendar for 2005 and 2006 and Australia coach Wayne Bennett has been among those pushing for the event to be taken Down Under. The Australian clubs are quite right in their argument that the end of a long and arduous season is the wrong time to play internationals but it is the British players who are the worst affected since Super League clubs play far more matches than their NRL counterparts. www.theage.com.au /news/Sport/Selfish-Aussies-threaten-TriNationss/2004/11/17/1100574527699.html   (554 words)

Hunger abroad for old-style Test series - TriNations - RugbyHeaven One possibility would be to stage the Tri Nations tournament and a three-Test series in alternate years, although practicalities might rule this out. Fenton has argued for years that because, in his view, the Bledisloe Cup has supplanted Ashes cricket Tests and the rugby league grand final as the premier sporting event in the eastern states, it should not be submerged in the Tri Nations series. The very repetitiveness of the Tri Nations, he says, is dulling their interest, with the result that internationals against Australia and South Africa no longer have the same sense of occasion. www.rugbyheaven.smh.com.au /articles/2004/07/22/1090464793575.html   (592 words)

Definition of All Blacks The first New Zealand national rugby league team was nicknamed the All Golds by the New Zealand press, a derogatory pun based on the fact that rugby league players were professional. For much of the 20th century, rugby union appeared to be New Zealand's national religion, with selection to the All Blacks perhaps more highly regarded than a knighthood. The All Blacks are the national rugby union representative team of New Zealand. www.wordiq.com /definition/All_Blacks   (646 words)
