FOX SPORTS on Foxtel will feed the appetite of Australian rugby fans with a dedicated pop-up channel devoted to some of the finest moments in Australian rugby from today, March 23 until Sunday, March 29 on FOX SPORTS MORE (channel 507).

Celebrating 36 of the best matches over the last four decades in the Tri Nations, Bledisloe Cup, Super Rugby and Rugby Championship, FOX SPORTS will give fans something to smile about while professional rugby is on hold.

Fans can watch from 1986, when the Alan Jones coached Wallabies recorded their last win at Eden Park in Auckland, to John Eales’ penalty goal after the siren to steal victory from the All Blacks in 2000, up until the best wins in recent years.

As well, FOX SPORTS will also feature four 90-minute specials from the archives; A decade of the Wallabies, A decade of the All Blacks, New Zealand’s Greatest Victories over Australia and Australia’s Greatest Victories over NZ on the dedicated channel.

The greatest players from both sides of the Tasman will be on show with Wallabies John Eales, George Gregan, Stephen Larkham, Matt Giteau, George Smith, Michael Hooper, David Pocock, Joe Roff, Quade Cooper plus New Zealand greats Dan Carter, Richie McCaw, Jonah Lomu, Tana Umaga, Ma’a Nonu, Mils Muliaina, Andrew Mehrtens, Beauden Barrett and Aaron Smith in their best ever performances.
