Official Reebok Wallabies home long sleeved rugby shirt from 1998 international season.

Although Australia also wore this jersey design in the previous 1997 season, the 1998 version featured the 'Vodafone' sponsor on the front (not displayed on the jersey in the previous year).

The condition of this vintage rugby jersey is 9/10 - Superb. One little dot mark on the collar (see photos).

Greg Smith was national coach in 1996 and 1997 when Australia only won two of their eight Tri-Nations Tests, both over South Africa in Australia, and suffered record-margin Test defeats by the All Blacks and Springboks. Rod Macqueen was appointed as Smith's successor and in 1998 Australia won both their Tests over the All Blacks to gain the Bledisloe Cup. They retained the Bledisloe in 1999 when they defeated the All Blacks by a record 28–7 in Sydney.
