SOUTH AFRICA V NEW
ZEALAND
MC CAW TRY MEENS ALL
BLACKS ARE GREATEST GOING INTO WORLD CUP
Richie McCaw's late try proved decisive as the All Blacks
fought back to beat the Springboks 27-20 in an absorbing match at Ellis Park,
Johannesburg.
New Zealand was 20-17 adrift with six minutes left when
McCaw darted over from a slickly-worked line-out routine.
Lima Sopoaga added the conversion and a late penalty to earn
the visitors a flattering score line.
Tries from Smith and Coles gave New Zealand the chance to
set up for this impressive win
Willie le Roux and Jesse Kriel's tries had given the Springboks
an important win over the All Blacks going into the world cup i9n a few weeks.
But the All Blacks once again showed that they had that
important trait you want a good team to have and that is Luck as they managed
to win this important game.

ARGENTINA V AUSTRALIA
BONUS POINT AUSSIE
WIN LEAVE DREAM TIE ON 8TH AUGUST
Australia scored three second-half tries to defeat Argentina
in Mendoza and set up a Rugby Championship title decider against New Zealand.
The Wallabies had led 8-6 at half-time due to a Tomane try
but the match itself at this stage was not that interesting before Dean Mumm, Tevita Kuridrani and Adam
Ashley-Cooper crossed the line.
The bonus-point victory moves Australia level with the All
Blacks with nine points at the top of the table.
