All Blacks Lose To South Africa

The All Blacks have not had the best dress rehearsal for the Rugby World Cup with a 35-7 loss to South Africa at Twickenham on Saturday. They conceded five tries to one, and had lock Scott Barrett sent off in the first half after getting two yellow cards. Playing with 14 men for the remainder of the match, coach Ian Foster was forced to bring on replacement lock Tupou Vaai' in place of blindside Luke Jacobson to compete in the lineouts. The All Blacks also lost prop Tyrel Lomax to a leg cut early in the match that needed 30 stitches, putting him in doubt for the RWC opening match against France. Any possible suspension of Barrett would put pressure on the All Blacks with Brodie Retallick still out several weeks with his knee injury from the Dunedin test.

New Zealand All Blacks: 7

Try: Cam Roigard, Conversion: Richie Mo'unga

South Africa: 35

Tries: Siya Kolisi, Kurt-Lee Arendse, Malcolm Marx, Bongi Mbonambi, Kwagga Smith, Conversions: Manie Libbok 5

All Blacks Win Against Scotland

The All Blacks have scored two late tries to secure a 31-23 win against Scotland this morning. After leading 14-0 early in the match after tries to prop Samisoni Taukei'aho and winger Mark Telea, the All Blacks lost Anton Lienert-Brown to a yellow card after he tackled Stuart Hogg in goal as he chased a kick through. The penalty try plus a second to winger Darcy Graham saw Scotland lead a halftime 17-14, and they scored 23 unanswered points before the All Blacks struck back. A sin-bin to loose forward Jack Demspey in the 65th minute preceded a try to lock Scott Barrett, with the second for Mark Talea in the 75th minute securing the match.

All Blacks Win Over Japan

The All Blacks have secured an unconvincing 38-31 win against Japan, but lost both captain Sam Cane and hooker Dane Coles to injury for the remaining matches of the Northern Tour. Cane fractured his cheek bone late in the match, while Coles was a late scratching before the match with a calf strain. Also missing the next tour game against Wales will be lock Brodie Retallick, who received a two match ban after being sent off in the second half for an illegal clean-out in a ruck.

All Blacks Have Narrow Win Against Australia

The All Blacks have secured a late 39-37 win over Australia in Melbourne, but it was not without controversy. The All Blacks scored five tries to four, but it was the match winning try in the 80th minute to Jordie Barrett that everyone was talking about. With minutes remaining in the match, the All Blacks were on attack metres from the Australian line when they conceded a penalty in a ruck, but the All Blacks were awarded a scrum by referee Mathieu Raynal when Australia took to long for kicking the ball to touch. The All Blacks then moved the ball wide for Barrett to score off the scrum and win the match.

The All Blacks lost both captain Sam Cane and second five David Havili to head knocks in the first half, and then replacement back Quinn Tupaea to a knee injury which saw Darcy Swain sinned-binned for contact to his knee. Coach Ian Foster has said at this stage he is likely out for an extended time with medial and anterior cruciate ligament damage, but was not sure of the availability of Cane and Havili for next Saturday's return Bledisloe and Rugby Championship match.

New Zealand All Blacks: 39 

Tries: Samisoni Taukei'aho 2, Richie Mo'unga, Will Jordan, Jordie Barrett, Conversions: Mo'unga 4, Penalties: Mo'unga 2

Australia: 37

All Blacks Beat Argentina By 50 Points

The All Blacks have bounced back from the previous loss to Argentina with a 53-3 win in Hamilton on Saturday night. Despite the wet conditions, the All Blacks scored seven tries while hammering the Pumas in tackles and forcing them back with kick and chase options. The All Blacks have surprisingly jumped to the top of the Rugby Championship table with the bonus point win, and now travel to Australia for the next match in Melbourne on Thursday 15 September.

New Zealand All Blacks: 53

Ireland Beat All Blacks

Ireland have beaten the All Blacks in New Zealand for the first time with a 23-12 win in Dunedin. The game was a controversial one where the All Blacks had multiple yellow cards, and prop Angus Ta'avao sent off in the 30th minute after what seemed an accidental head clash when making a tackle. Ta'avao had only just entered the game as a front row yellow card replacement, and the resulting send off put the All Blacks on the back foot for the rest of the match. Number eight Ardie Savea had left the field to allow the All Blacks to match front rows for a scrum and was then not allowed to re-enter the game. The match officials had wrongly determined that he should not go back onto the field, with World Rugby later admitting the mistake post match. The All Blacks had said they would likely have removed a different player had this been known.


Ireland: 23

Tries: Andrew Porter 2, Conversions: Jonny Sexton 2, Penalties: Sexton 3

All Blacks Win First Test Against Ireland

The All Blacks have beaten Ireland 42-19 in their first test at Auckland's Eden Park on Saturday night.

As was expected, it was a tough physical match early on, with the Irish getting the first try in the 5th minute to winger Keith Earls. The All Blacks did not help themselves with handling errors, but got on the board in the 20th minute with a try to Jordie Barrett, and again the the 29th minute when Sevu Reece picked up a loose ball to run 75 metres untouched. Second five Quinn Tupaea added the third try off a Beauden Barrett grubber kick, and Ardie Savea pounced on a loose ball in the Irish goal to see the All Blacks go to half time with four tries and a 28-5 lead.

The Irish struck back early in the second half with a try to centre Garry Ringrose to reduce the margin to 28-12, but Ardie Savea then struck back for the All Blacks with his second. The Irish held a territorial and possession advantage for the match, but handling errors saw the ball lost over the line twice when scoring, and strong defense and scrummaging from the All Blacks proved the difference.

New Zealand All Blacks: 42  

Tries: Jordie Barrett, Sevu Reece, Quinn Tupaea, Ardie Savea 2, Pita Gus Sowakula, Conversions: J Barrett 6

It was a similar physical contest to last weeks loss to Ireland, with a relentless French side leading 24-6 at half time.

All Blacks Suffer First Loss On Northern Tour

The All Blacks have lost their first match on the Northern Tour, going down 29-20 to Ireland. Ireland scored three tries to two and dominated much of the territory and possession in the match, with the All Blacks forced to make 158 first half tackles to Ireland's 37, and 235 total for the match to Ireland's 101. The All Blacks lost Beauden Barrett to a head knock, and Anton Lienert-Brown to a dislocated shoulder, and the cause was not helped when hooker Codie Taylor spent 10 minutes in the sin-bin for a high tackle in the first half.
