The first New Zealand team was selected in 1884, for a tour to New South Wales (NSW), Australia. It was a privately organised selection as the New Zealand Rugby Union was founded not until eight years later. On 22 May 1884, before the tour start, the team played a test match against the Wellington Rugby Football Union team, winning 9 to 0. During the tour the team recorded eight wins in eight matches, all in NSW. The most popular player among the Sydney public was Māori footballer John Taiaroa, with street posters billing his name alone as a draw-card. The team performed a war cry (haka) described by The New Zealand Herald as "the New Zealand football cry, 'Ake, ake, ake, ake, kia kaha' (for ever, for ever keep up your courage; go on with vigour.)" After the tour Henry Braddon and James O'Donnell did not return to New Zealand with the team, deciding to remain in Sydney where they continued to play rugby union and later entered New South Wales politics.
