This 1996 Wallabies jersey is a rare one-season release, worn during a transitional era before Australia switched to Reebok in 1997. Made by Canterbury of New Zealand, it’s a high-quality, long sleeve jersey tagged Medium and fits true to size.

Most famously worn during the fiery 1996 test at Ballymore versus the All Blacks, this jersey witnessed one of rugby’s wildest moments — when Wallabies flanker Michael Brial launched a flurry of punches at Frank Bunce in a heated brawl. Remarkably, Brial remained on the field, only for the All Blacks to snatch the win in the final moments.

A classic design from a passionate era, this jersey is a must-have for collectors and fans of Wallabies history.

Condition: Excellent – no major flaws. Vibrant colours, crisp logos, and all stitching intact. Slight markings on one sleeve of jersey.
