victory over France on 9 June 1990 at the Sydney Football Stadium.[2] He started every match
of the 1990 French tour to Australia, winning the test series 2–1. His first major test series was
the Bledisloe Cup series in August 1990. The All Blacks won the trophy with a 2–1 series win.
McKenzie was part of the Australian side that claimed the 1991 Rugby World Cup, beating the
All Blacks in the semi-final with a famous 16–6 victory at Lansdowne Road,[3] before taking the
cup with a 12–6 victory over England in the final at Twickenham, where he formed a formidable
front row alongside Tony Daly and Phil Kearns.[4]

In 1992, McKenzie travelled to Cape Town with the Wallabies to play the Springboks for the first
time in 22 years. Australia defeated South Africa convincingly by 26–3.[5] The previous month,
McKenzie had won his first Bledisloe Cup series, beating the All Blacks 2–1 with a 19–17 victory
at Ballymore, and a 16–15 victory at the Sydney Football Stadium. In the space of twelve
months, the Australians won the World Cup and beaten the four home nations and South Africa
and New Zealand.[6]

The Wallabies were unable to retain the Bledisloe a year later after a 25–10 loss at Carisbrook.
However, McKenzie was part of the team that beat South Africa for just the second time in a
series on Australian soil with a 2–1 win over the Springboks during their 1993 tour of Australia.
In 1994, the Wallabies won all 6 games they played in that year, with McKenzie starting in all 6
games. He was part of the 1995 Rugby World Cup squad, but was unable to retain their 1991
title following a 25–22 loss to England in the Quarter Finals at Cape Town.

In 1996, McKenzie played just two games of the Wallabies season, which were part of the 1996
Welsh tour of Australia. He missed the inaugural series of the Tri nations, but was reselected in
1997 for the 1997 French tour of Australia. 1997 was the year McKenzie retired from
international rugby, making his last appearance on 12 July 1997 after a 25–6 victory over
England in Sydney. In his entire career of 51 test matches, he only ever played as a substitute
once, during a pool game in the 1995 Rugby World Cup.[7]

World XV
In 1992, McKenzie toured New Zealand with the World XV to mark the centenary of the New
Zealand Rugby Union. New Zealand won the series 2–1, with a 54–26 win at Wellington and a
26–15 win at Auckland.[8] The World XV's only win was the opening match, where they secured
a 28–14 win.

Super 12
Runner-up: 1997 (Brumbies)

Coaching career
Following his retirement from playing in 1997, McKenzie has coached at many different levels.
He has coached both in the Southern Hemisphere and the Northern Hemisphere, taking on
different roles of coaching. He began with the Brumbies in 1998 as a coaching co-ordinator
before spending three years with the Wallabies as an assistant coach to Rod Macqueen and
Eddie Jones. His success as an assistant landed him a role as head coach of the Waratahs, where
still to this date his five-year tenure makes him the longest serving coach of the Sydney-based
team. During this time he also briefly coached the Australia A side. McKenzie then joined
French team Stade Français for the 2008–09 season.

He returned home in 2009 and took up the role as director of rugby for the Queensland Reds.
He coached the Reds for four seasons from 2010 to 2013 before stepping down to pursue
international opportunities. He was heavily linked with the head coaching positions of Scotland
and Ireland, but it was the Wallabies McKenzie wanted to coach.[9][10] On 8 July 2013,
McKenzie was named head coach of the Wallabies succeeding Robbie Deans. After fifteen
months in charge, McKenzie resigned as coach of the Wallabies on 18 October 2014.[11]

Assistant coach of Australia


In 2000, he joined the Wallabies coaching set-up as an assistant coach to Rod Macqueen until
2001, when Macqueen stepped down as head coach, and Eddie Jones took over. During this
time, McKenzie and Macqueen led Australia to their first Tri Nations title in 2000. In addition
to this, they also helped the national team to their third successive Bledisloe Cup triumph,
dating back to 1998. He also helped the Wallabies to a historic 2–1 series win over the British &
Irish Lions, before again retaining the Bledisloe Cup through to 2003. During this time, Jones
succeeded Macqueen and joined Link to lead the team to their second Tri Nations title in 2001.
McKenzie's last duties as assistant coach was during the 2003 Rugby World Cup, where
Australia lost the final to England in extra time.

New South Wales Waratahs


In November 2003, McKenzie succeeded Bob Dwyer as head coach of the New South Wales
Waratahs. He led the team to the 2005 Super 12 final, lost 35–25 to the Crusaders, in his second
year at the helm, and to the semi-final in 2006, lost 16–14 to the Hurricanes, before reaching
the final again in 2008, where he lost again to the Crusaders 20–12. Despite not coaching the
Waratahs at current, he is the Waratahs longest serving coach in history.

Stade Français
Following a successful 5-year tenure with the NSW Waratahs, McKenzie joined French club
Stade Français in 2008, taking the side to the semi-final in the first year in charge – Stade
Français lost to Perpignan 25–21 in that semi-final.[12]

Queensland Reds
On 9 October 2009 it was announced that McKenzie was leaving France to return home to
Australia, and that he was taking over the coaching job of the Queensland Reds in the Super 14,
succeeding Phil Mooney. He became the club's seventh coach in 11 years.[12] During his first
year as Queensland Reds Director of Rugby in 2010, he took the side to 5th in the table, a
significant rise from previous positions of the bottom 5 in the table. The 5th-place positioning,
was the Reds highest position since 2002.

That success continued into 2011 when the Reds triumphed to win their first Super Rugby
Championship in the professional Rugby era, beating the Crusaders 18–13 at Suncorp. Having
devised a brand of rugby that received international acclaim, the Reds topped the regular season
with 13 victories and just 3 losses. McKenzie then guided the Reds to victory over the Blues in
the semi-final and Crusaders in the final to score their first title since 1995.

McKenzie successfully transformed the Reds into the powerhouse rugby province of Australia,
with the team's second straight conference title in 2012 coming only a year after guiding the
team to their maiden Super Rugby championship. However, the Reds were unable to retain
their title, following a heavy home defeat of 30–17 to the Sharks in the Qualifying finals round.

In his first three years at the helm, McKenzie contributed to the Reds winning every major piece
of available silverware, with the only trophy to elude the team during his opening two
campaigns – the Rod Macqueen Cup – making its way to Queensland for the first time in 2012.
Two successive victories over the Brumbies were the catalyst behind the Reds 2012 success as
they again dominated their Australian rivals by winning seven of their eight matches against
domestic opposition. Among other firsts, the Reds also claimed their maiden win at Eden Park.

Prior to McKenzie's tenure, the Reds had been through several poor seasons. Despite the
expansive style of rugby introduced by previous head coach Phil Mooney, the team had
remained in the bottom half of the table. The side was transformed under McKenzie, still
playing entertaining rugby but with a greatly improved win–loss ratio.

Media commentary and succession planning


By 2012, McKenzie's coaching had become a regular subject of the Fairfax's Sydney Morning
Herald. In February that year Greg Growden outlined McKenzie's plan to "select a faster, more
mobile forward pack" for the Super Rugby season opener against the Waratahs in Sydney.[13]

McKenzie, in his own column in the Sydney Morning Herald, shared his coaching insights. In
April, he first he discussed the challenges incorporating a new player into an unfamiliar playing
environment.[14] A week later he explained, "The decision [by Queensland Rugby] to recruit
Richard Graham from the Western Force was a proactive one made ... to ensure we can sustain
ongoing success both with the Reds and in the community game."[15] Later he reported being
asked about the strengths of the Australian conference relative to the South African and New
Zealand conferences. In response he said: "I have found this year's competition to be one of the
tightest in memory and this is more of a reflection on the strength of play from all teams as
opposed to any perceived weaknesses."[16] In May, he reflected on the coaches' challenges of
negotiating player contracts.[17]

On 19 March 2013, McKenzie announced he was to stand down as Queensland Reds head coach

at the end of the 2013 Super Rugby season to further his hopes at coaching at international
level.[18] Following the announcement, he was linked to the then vacant Ireland job, as well as
the vacant Scotland job.[19][20] However, despite the links and meetings with other unions, it
was the Wallabies job he wanted, which he landed on 8 July 2013. Although he wasn't set to
take over the Wallabies job until 4 August, his reign at Queensland Reds ended on 20 July
following a 38–9 defeat to the Crusaders in the Qualifiers of the 2013 season, allowing him to
turn his attention to Australia 2 weeks earlier than expected.[21]

Head coach of Australia

First Season: 2013


On 8 July 2013, following the resignation of Robbie Deans after a test series defeat to the British
& Irish Lions, McKenzie was expected to be selected as Wallabies coach.[22] He was officially
named Wallabies coach to replace Robbie Deans on 9 July 2013, and said that he would start his
duties with Australia as soon as his job was completed at the Queensland Reds.[23]

His first match in charge was a 47–29 loss to New Zealand at ANZ Stadium in the opening
fixture of the 2013 Rugby Championship.[24] In this match he gave five debutants their first cap,
including Matt To'omua being named at fly-Half ahead of Quade Cooper. To'omua was the first
Wallaby to make his debut against New Zealand in the starting XV since Rod Kafer in 1999. The
27–16 loss a week later, meant the Bledisloe Cup would stay with New Zealand for the 11th year
in a row.[25]

McKenzie then led the team to a 38–12 defeat by South Africa in Brisbane, which was the
Wallabies' largest losing margin to the Springboks in Australia.[26] The next match was a 14–13
win over Argentina in a game hampered by heavy winds and rain in Perth, and it was
McKenzie's first taste of victory as an international coach.[27] In the away fixture against South
Africa in Cape Town, the Wallabies lost again to the Springboks, 28–8.[28]

Australia's final fixture of the Championship saw the Wallabies earn their first bonus point win
of the season with a record 54–17 win. This was the most points Australia had scored in either
the Rugby Championship or Tri Nations.[29] During the Championship, McKenzie made several
bold moves as a coach. He dropped star player Will Genia for Nic White, who at the time had
only 3 caps, and named Ben Mowen as captain in his first year as a test player. In the final
Bledisloe Cap match, Australia became the first team to score 33 points against New Zealand in
New Zealand, but lost the match 41–33 with New Zealand winning the series 3–0.

On the 2013 end of year tour, McKenzie led the team to 4 consecutive wins (50–20 win over
Italy, 32–15 win over Ireland, 21–15 win over Scotland and a 30–26 win over Wales) which was
the first time Australia has done this since 2008. The 20–13 loss to England in the opening
match of the tour ruled out winning the Grand Slam, but Australia won the tour and retained
the Lansdowne Cup, reclaimed the Hopetoun Cup and claimed the James Bevan Trophy for the
6th time in a row.

Second season: 2014


Australia under McKenzie built on the results from the 2013 tour, increasing the 4 consecutive
wins to 7 for the first time since 2000 with a 3–0 test series win over France during the June

International Window. The match results were a 50–23 win in Brisbane, a 6–0 win in
Melbourne and a 39–13 win in Sydney. The series win meant Australia regained the Trophée
des Bicentenaires after it had been lost in 2012.

The Wallabies's unbeaten run stretched to 8 matches with a 12–all draw with New Zealand,
prompting optimism that Australia could end their 28-year losing streak at Eden Park.
However, Australia came crashing back to earth, suffering a 51–20 defeat, stretching Australia's
Bledisloe Cup drought to a 12 years. Australia managed to bounce back from that defeat, with
hard fought 24–23 and 32–25 wins over South Africa and Argentina, with the latter win
ensuring that the Wallabies retained the Puma Trophy.

Australia's 28–10 loss away in Cape Town, after conceding 3 tries and a drop goal in the final 11
minutes of the match, led to a one-all test series against South Africa which meant that Australia
was unable to reclaim the Mandela Challenge Plate. A week later, Australia suffered a 21–17 loss
in Argentina to become the first country to lose to the Pumas in the Rugby Championship since
Argentina's admittance in 2012. The result came as a surprise to some as Australia had led 14–0
after scoring two tries in the first twelve minutes, but had but only managed to add one further
penalty during the rest of the match.

The Wallabies played the All Blacks in Brisbane for third and final Bledisloe Cup match of 2014.
For most of the match Australia was the better side and dominated the New Zealanders.[30] The
Wallabies had a 25–15 lead with fifteen minutes remaining, but conceded two late tries, the
second being converted in over-time, for the All Blacks to win by 29–28.[30] This was
McKenzie's last match as Australia's head coach.

Resignation as Wallabies coach


McKenzie announced the end of his tenure as Australian head coach in the press conference
after the final Bledisloe Cup test of 2014, explaining that he had submitted his resignation on
the morning of the match against the All Blacks, effective regardless of whether the result was a
win, loss or draw.[11] It was just six days before the team left Australia for their 2014 Spring
Tour.

This came after a turbulent three weeks in the Australian camp. On 29 September, the ARU had
announced that Kurtley Beale would be investigated over a heated argument between Beale and
the Wallabies business manager Di Patston, on a 10-hour flight from Johannesburg to São
Paulo.[31] The incident led to Patston leaving the tour early and she resigned from her position
shortly afterwards under stress.[32]

As the fall-out continued it was reported that Beale had distributed offensive texts and images
referring to Patston some months earlier.[33] Patston had not escalated this to the ARU to give
Beale a second chance but had told him that she would reveal the contents of the texts if another
incident arose.[33] Beale later admitted to sending an offensive photo and was eventually fined
$45,000 by an independent tribunal.[34] – See Kurtley Beale § Di Patston text controversy.

On 10 October at the announcement of the 32-man squad for the Bledisloe Cup match, it took 17
minutes for the press to ask anything about the squad,[35] while McKenzie came under fire over
the off-field issues leading to Beale's suspension from the team and upcoming tribunal
appearance, and was questioned about Patston's role and whether he had lost the confidence of

6 von 13 21.06.2025, 20:57


Ewen McKenzie - Wikipedia [Link]

the players. McKenzie was even forced to deny being in an extramarital affair with Patston.[36]

McKenzie was appalled at the vitriolic attacks against Patston and the insinuations about his
relationship with her.[11] Team captain Michael Hooper backed Beale while Christian Lealiifano
and Quade Cooper joined McKenzie in backing Patston.[37][38] It was reported that some
players had become uneasy with Patston's role in the team,[39] and with how much power
McKenzie had given her following the revelation that Patston had input into the player
disciplinary measures that occurred on the 2013 Spring Tour.[35][40]

Record
McKenzie coached the Wallabies to 11 wins and one draw in 22 tests coached, a winning
percentage of 50%. He had a good winning record against European teams, 7 of 8 tests played –
the lone loss was against England in November 2013 – and a good record against Argentina, a
3–1 win–loss record. However, he ended with a losing record against other Rugby
Championship opponents, with only a draw to show for in six matches against New Zealand and
a 1–3 win–loss record against South Africa.
