I don't even support N Melbourne!
I am aware that the Australian u-17 team has played New Zealand's senior team several times since 2010. Does anyone know of other matches within or before this time frame featuring any Australian national team against senor teams of other countries?

EDIT: the reason I am searching is because I am creating rankings for a large variety of international team sports. it is clear the Australia should be ranked number 1, but everything is done mathematically, so I need to find as many matches as possible to try and get Australia legitimately ranked.

Many games by indigenous representative teams like the Boomerangs etc.
Youth AFL teams playing IR.
World and Pacific teams have played in Australian state schoolboys championships.
Masters and other amateur representative touring teams.
Non-representative amateur touring teams.

Thanks, after searching about the Boomerangs I was able to find a handful of matches featuring an Australian youth team against South African national team. In regards to the other suggestions I can only use matches that involve some form of national squad though.

Not sure if you have seen this below done by Cam Holmes and Brett Northey. Very tough given the sparse amount of games and regular contests. Also claims of national sides that may not be (surely need to be appointed by the national body) and eligibility are a contentious issue. Will be interested to see what you come up with.

Yes, I am familiar with these rankings. My system is a bit different though because it takes into consideration the wealth and population amount of a country to attempt to increase the accuracy of ratings. The match list this ranking system is pretty good, but they do not include any games with Australia. :(
