WHAT DOES THE ALL BLACKS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

the All Blacks

New Zealand national rugby union team

The All Blacks represent New Zealand in what is regarded as its national sport. The All Blacks are the holders of the Rugby World Cup and are the 2013 International Rugby Board Team of the Year as well as having the 2013 player of the year Kieran Read and coach of the year Steve Hansen. In 2012 the All Blacks won Team, Player and Coach of the year and in 2011 the team won Team and Coach of the year after winning the Rugby World Cup. They have won over 76% of their Test matches, and are the leading Test match points scorers of all time. They are the only international side with a winning record against every country they have played and since their international debut in 1903 only five nations have defeated New Zealand in Test matches. Since the introduction of the IRB's world rankings in October 2003, New Zealand has held number one ranking longer than all other teams combined. New Zealand compete with Argentina, Australia and South Africa in The Rugby Championship—known as the Tri Nations before Argentina's entry in 2012. The All Blacks have won the trophy twelve times in the competition's eighteen-year history.
