Head to head: Four-try Wallabies overpower France
June 28, 2008

Australia and France have met on 36 previous occasions, with the Wallabies holding a slender 18 wins to 16 advantage, while two further matches have been drawn.

In Australia, the tally stands 11 wins to four in Australia's favour, with one drawn.

Test matches in Sydney have fallen Australia's way by a ratio of six wins to three, with one drawn.

France's most recent win was a 28-19 success in the third Test of the 1990 series at the Sydney Football Stadium. Their previous success was a shock victory over the Wallabies in the 1987 Rugby World Cup semi-final at Concorde Oval.

Saturday's night match rekindles a rivalry that has been dormant since November 2005 when the two sides last met, at the Stade Velodrome in Marseilles. France was victorious on that occasion, 26-16.
