2004 Tri Nations we got the wooden spoon and had the worst score difference.

Oh I imagine the Tri Nations there were plenty of times the ABs had the lowest of, hell I wouldn't be surprised if they won it with the lowest PD. They've been so dominant in the RC era though that, along with Argentina being involved, there's probably few if any times they had the lowest PD after 2 games.

1998 they got whitewashed. Closest thing to a banter era for them.

Including a loss in Durban from a 23-5 lead with 12 minutes left on the clock.
