The Kookaburras have lost the last two games of their three-test series against Germany, losing 3-4 and 1-3.
Saturday's game saw the Kookaburras keen to continue their good form from Thursday, while Germany was looking to reverse the 4-0 result.
The match began at a furious pace with both sides having some very good penalty corner opportunities early, it was the Germans who capitalized though, Dragun flicking through their first in the ninth minute.
Andrew Smith equalized in the 27th minute though when he pounced on a loose ball in the circle, slamming the half volley into the top of the net.
It looked like the score would remain at 1-1 going into half time before Germany drew a penalty corner with 16 seconds on the clock, the successful variation ending with Wess who scored in his first game back from injury.
The second half began horribly for the Kookaburras with Germany scoring twice in two minutes, extending their lead to three, and could have been much worse had Stephen Lambert not made some crucial saves.
In the 45th minute the Kookaburras found some form, Jamie Dwyer getting one back before Eglington worked his way past two defenders to slam home Australia's third and keep them in the match.
With nine minutes left on the clock the Kookaburras had a number of opportunities and with ten seconds left had two penalty corner opportunities but failed to convert, Germany coming away with 4-3 win.
"Our first half performance was too reactive," said national coach Barry Dancer.
"We played our best hockey in the last third of the game and paid the penalty for playing below our best up to that stage."
Sunday's game began much like Saturday's, with both sides having some very good opportunities early but a combination of wayward shooting and some strong defense keeping the score at nil-all.
Highlighting just how even the first 35 minutes were, the Kookaburras had 14 circle penetrations, four penalty corners and a couple of very good shots on goal, while Germany had the same number of circle penetrations, three penalty corners and two shots on goal also - all to no avail with the score line remaining at 0-0 at half time.
After the break Germany came out firing, breaking the drought in the 38th minute with a penalty corner, before the Kookaburras managed to equalize in the 46th when David Guest's low drag flick beat the German keeper.
It was short-lived however, with Germany piling on two more goals, a penalty corner to Witthaus and a great tomahawk goal to Nevado, to come away with another strong win.
"Today was a very disappointing performance," said national coach, Barry Dancer.
"The quality of our game fell away in the second half. Our possession game will need to improve and we need more consistency and continuity in our attacking game which will be a major focus in the matches against Spain."
The Kookaburras now head to the Spanish coastal town of Bilbao where they'll play three tests against the very talented Spaniards.
