Sth Africa remain at the bottom of the table after losing to the NZ All Blacks 35-17. This was to be what one expects from a test match with these two.
It was a tough uncompromising affair but the lack of disipline in the Sth African ranks being the difference with Dan Carter kicking 25 points after his first kick of the match was charged down and the visitors scored giving Sth Africa a 7-0 lead after just 17 seconds
Carter was superb, and so was Thorne who was making his comeback after a few years in the test wilderness. The All Black scrum slowly asserted dominance and Weepu, at halfback was dominant. Scott Hamilton was out of sorts and seemed a little out of place in the top league and Oliver was just hopeless. I would be surprised if he makes another appearance in Black unless it is for his All Black funeral.
A Test Match expected of these two rivals... not pretty but it sure had you on the edge of your seat
The Competition now moves back to Australia where NZ meet the Aussies next weekend
