The Wallabies and new coach Joe Schmidt will be looking for redemption at the 2024 Rugby Championship, after going winless in the 2023 tournament.

The poor showing last year was a precursor for a horror World Cup, where the Wallabies were eliminated in the pool stage for the first time ever.

It is a tough competition with world champions South Africa as well as traditional foes the All Blacks, who are also under new management in Scott Robertson.

Australia Rugby Championship history

Since the creation of the Rugby Championship in 2012, Australia has only won the tournament once in 2015.

They were unbeaten for the first time, however it was a shortened competition with just three games due to the upcoming 2015 World Cup.

Australia has failed to come close since then, winning the wooden spoon twice, including in last year's edition.

Whilst the 2023 tournament was also a shortened version due to the World Cup, Australia lost all three games, including at home to Argentina, and a 31-point walloping at the hands of New Zealand.
