1994 Kangaroo Tour Of Great Britain And France
The 1994 Kangaroo Tour was the last played in the conventional format, where the Australian side plays a number of matches against British and French clubs or provincial outfits, in additions to the Test matches. The outbreak of the Super League war meant that the next Kangaroo Tour, set for 1998, never eventuated; although a shortened Tour was staged in 2001.
Australia continued its dominance, winning both Test series against Great Britain and France, suffering only one loss (against Great Britain in the First Test), and remained undefeated against British club outfits in a streak stretching back to 1978.
The team was coached by Bob Fulton who was making his fourth Kangaroo Tour (1973 and 1978 as a player, the latter as captain, and 1990 as coach). Mal Meninga created history by becoming the first and so far only player to make four tours as a player, the last two as captain.
This was the last full strength Australian side to take the field until after the resolution of the Super League war.
