International football competition
The 2005 Australian Football International Cup was the second time that the Australian Football International Cup tournament, an international Australian rules football competition was held.
The event was hosted by both Melbourne and Wangaratta, Australia, in 2005.
10 nations participated following the late withdrawal of both Nauru and Denmark and the introduction of Spain.
All sides were scheduled to play 4 games, after which the top 4 sides played off in semi-finals for a berth in the Grand Final decider. The Grand Final was between Papua New Guinea and New Zealand. Both sides went through the tournament undefeated. It was played as a curtain raiser to an official Australian Football League premiership season match and was replayed on Fox Sports (Australia) and the Fox Footy Channel.
New Zealand were crowned international champions for the first time.
