AB’s Win “By Strangulation”
The All Blacks beat Australia 16-7 in miserable Wellington conditions to retain the Bledisloe Cup for the first time in seven years. Guardian: “For all the major effect the elements had in ruining this contest as a free-flowing spectacle, it was still as dominant a display of forward power as has been seen by the All Blacks in a decade. The Wallabies got close on the scoreboard but nowhere else.”
