text: # 1929 New Zealand rugby union tour of Australia
  
  The 1929 New Zealand rugby tour to New South Wales was the 14th tour by the New Zealand national rugby union team to Australia.
  
  For the first time since the First World War, Australia could present a real and official national team, after the activity of Rugby Union was suspended during the war and reprised only in New South Wales (many players switched to Rugby league especially in Queensland).
  
  Australia won the 3 match Test series 3–0.
