Defeats of Australian Shoolboys

[The Partisan]

Guys I may be wrong but I thought I read somewhere on this forum that the ENGLAND ACADEMY side were the first team to defeat the Aussies on Australian shores.

I was sure that NZ had won once and found this info on the Australian Secondary Schools RL website.

1994:
In 1994 the Australian Schoolboys played two tests against New Zealand Junior Kiwis winning at Parkes 56 - 30 and losing at Redcliffe 18 - 10. The Australian Schoolboys team contained a 15 year old Owen Craigie (who represented a record three years 1994/5/6) Brett Kimmorley, Ben Ikin, Luke Priddis, Russell Richardson, Jason Ferris, Dean Raper and Michael Withers.

So there it is then !!! Wonder who was in the Kiwi side ???
