    Sydney could miss hosting a Bledisloe Cup rugby fixture for the second time in three years - and for the first time outside a World Cup year since 2006

    Officials are desperate to ensure the Wallabies feature in more than 2020's six tests.

    The Wallabies have lost their last four Sydney matches against the All Blacks, including a 43-5 defeat in October.

    Sydney will almost certainly host a Rugby Championship match, assuming South Africa and Argentina can travel.
