Like most of New Zealand's national rugby sides, the "Kiwi Ferns" of rugby league have an impressive history and an intimidating international record.
After winning their inaugural test match - they beat antipodean rivals Australia 18-14 in Sydney - New Zealand set about competing with the very best straight away. The result is a staggering amount of 2 and 3-match series wins against a range of Northern and Southern Hemisphere sides, as well as a trio of Rugby League World Cup trophies! New Zealand are deservedly considered one of the best teams in the world.
