2010 - Winners New Zealand

Autumn 2010 saw the Four Nations played in the Southern Hemisphere for the first time.

Usual suspects New Zealand, Australia and England were joined by Pacific Cup winners Papua New Guinea.

After an exhilarating round of group matches, where Australia dominated with an unbeaten record, they came face-to-face against their old foes New Zealand in the final.

In a tense affair, at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium, the match was heading Australia’s way only for a last-minute try by New Zealand half back Nathan Fein sealed a memorable win for the Kiwis, who added the Four Nations title to their World cup crown they had won in 2008.
