Rugby is regarded the country's national sport. The New Zealand national rugby union team, commonly called the All Blacks, represent New Zealand in men's rugby union. They have a 77% winning record in test match rugby, and are the only international side with a winning record against every opponent. The All Blacks statistically speaking are the best side to have played the game. The team's first true test match occurred against Australia's Wallabies in 1903 at the Sydney Cricket Ground and resulted in a 22–3 victory. A test match in rugby union is an international match, usually played between two senior national teams, that is recognized as such by one of the teams' national governing bodies.
