This is the ultimate match for any Australian fan and there is nothing sweeter than beating England on their home turf. In 2010, England denied Australia a clean sweep on tour when they beat us 35-18. Robbie Deans and his men will be looking to put their record at Twickenham back on track and bring home the Cook Cup.
There is nothing quite like rugby at Twickenham and this is your chance to be part of the action.

Twickenham, the home of English rugby, is owned and operated by the RFU.
In 1907, the Rugby Football Union purchased 10 1/4 acres of land in Twickenham to build a stadium for the exclusive use of playing rugby. Over the next two years the infrastructure was completed and the stadium, designed to accommodate 20,000 people both seated and standing was ready for use. The first match at the stadium took place in 1909 and the first international between England and Wales was played in January 1910.
After extensive rebuilding between 1981 and 1995, the stadium as we know it today was completed, with a capacity of 75,000.
