All Blacks outwit Boks again
NEW Zealand produced another high-tempo, attack-minded performance yesterday to secure its second successive bonus-point win in the 2010 Tri-Nations with a 31-17 victory over South Africa at a sold-out Westpac Stadium in Wellington.
Ma铆a Nonu, Mils Muliaina, Rene Ranger and Israel Dagg scored tries for the All Blacks, while flyhalf Daniel Carter, who had a poor goalkicking performance in missing five attempts at goal, slotted two penalties and a conversion.
Piri Weepu also added a penalty for the hosts, who had beaten the Springboks 32-12 in Auckland last week with a similar game plan.
Danie Rossouw and Schalk Burger scored tries, while Morne Steyn added a penalty and two conversions for the world champions, who looked promising when they kept the ball in hand but had another poor tactical kicking game.
The All Blacks again dominated the bigger South Africans and their aggressive defensive line turned back waves of Springboks attacks.
矛What I铆m pleased with is that the guys are prepared to have a go,? All Blacks coach Graham Henry told reporters. 矛We铆re prepared to play rugby from a long way out and attack from inside our own half and that led to a couple of tries.?
The Springboks, who had Bakkies Botha sinbinned early last week, again fell foul of the referee with Rossouw shown a yellow card by Alain Rolland in the fourth minute for kicking All Blacks captain Richie McCaw.
The New Zealanders took advantage of their extra man, with Nonu and Muliaina finishing off sweeping moves.
Early penalty
The All Blacks had to settle for a 10-0 lead while Rossouw was off the field, with Carter, who had missed an early penalty, missing both conversions though he slotted his first successful penalty in the 31st.
Rossouw made amends when he barged over in the 37th, Steyn converting to make it 13-7.
The Springboks changed tactics in the second half as they battled into the wind, holding on to possession and hammering away down field before Steyn added an early penalty.
The All Blacks, however, struck back almost immediately, again attacking from deep and Ranger scored in the corner to give them an 18-10 lead before Weepu slotted a long-range penalty to extend the advantage.
The All Blacks were then forced to soak up immense pressure on their goal line but managed to keep the Springboks out before Dagg produced a mercurial run down the left touchline, turning four defenders inside out to score his first test try and put the game beyond doubt.
