- History of rugby union matches between All Blacks and England
The national rugby union teams of England and New Zealand (the All Blacks) have been playing each other in Test rugby since 1905, and by June 2008, they have met in 30 Test matches.
Their first meeting was on 2 December 1905. The All Blacks won 15–0 as part of their tour of Europe and Canada—four of their five tries were scored by Winger Duncan McGregor.[cite web| url=http://www.rugbymuseum.co.nz/asp/container_pages/normal_menu/rmArticle.asp?IDID=150 |title=THE 1905/06 'ORIGINALS' |publisher=rugbymuseum.co.nz |accessdate=2008-06-18] Their next meeting was on the All Blacks' "Invincibles" tour of 1924–25. The match was most notable for the sending off of All Black Lock Cyril Brownlie, who became the first player to ever be sent off in a Test match.][cite web| url=http://stats.allblacks.com/Profile.asp?ABID=97 |title=Cyril Brownlie |publisher=allblacks.com |accessdate=2008-06-18 |last=Knight |first=Lindsay] The All Blacks have played England 30 times, 23 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses.]Matches
