The 1996 Tri Nations Series was the inaugural series of the rugby union test matches, contested from 6 July to 10 August, between the Australia, New Zealand and South Africa national rugby union teams. The All Blacks won the inaugural tournament.[1]
New Zealand beat Australia in both tests, thus retaining the Bledisloe Cup, which it had taken off Australia the previous year.
