The Rugby World Cup 2015 comes to an end on Saturday evening, where New Zealand will look to dismiss Australia and become the first nation ever to win successive world titles.

Eighty minutes stand between Steve Hansen's side and that most hallowed spot in the history books, with the Twickenham showdown set to become the first of its kind contested by two southern hemisphere teams on European soil.

Statistically, the Wallabies have been the inferior team in recent matchups and have won just once in their last 12 meetings with the All Blacks, a Sydney victory that helped them seal this year's Rugby Championship.



Michael Cheika is barely a year into his reign at the Australia helm and has already galvanised the team to become World Cup contenders; he is now seeking a 2015 double over New Zealand.

Saturday's final will also see one of these nations mark their place as the most successful in World Cup history as both teams enter the fray with two tournament crowns to their name, seeking to complete their hat-tricks.

The Wallabies last won the tournament in 1999, building on their 1991 triumph, while New Zealand won the inaugural competition in 1987 before waiting a massive 24 years to again prevail in 2011.

Read on for a breakdown of which players are likely to have the heaviest influence on the biggest rugby match of 2015 and arguably of this century, where the world's top two are set to explode in England's capital.
