Australia\'s two-time Rugby World Cup winner John Eales has been inducted into the Wallaby Hall of Fame, according to the Australian Rugby Union. Eales made 86 Test appearances over a decade and captained the Wallabies 55 times. Under Eales the Wallabies won a World Cup in 1999, four Bledisloe Cups from 1998 to 2001, two Tri-Nations in 2000 and 2001 and a series win against the British Lions in 2001. He also was a member of Australia\'s winning team in the 1991 World Cup final at Twickenham. A towering lock, Eales is also remembered for kicking the Wallabies to a 24-23 victory over the All Blacks with a penalty goal in the final minute in Wellington to retain the Bledisloe Cup in 2000. Three weeks later the Wallabies went on to beat South Africa in Durban to win the Tri-Nations for the first time. Eales ended his career by leading Australia in a further seven Tests in 2001 when the Wallabies also won the Tri-Nations. Eales, 41, joins other Wallaby greats Ken Catchpole, John Hipwell, Mark Loane, Mark Ella, David Campese and Nick Farr-Jones among others in the Wallaby Hall of Fame. Each year three past players -- one from the pre-World War II era and two from the post-war period -- are inducted into the Wallaby Hall of Fame.
