The All Blacks have all but sewn up the Rugby Championship with a 21-11 victory over South Africa in Dunedin.

New Zealand’s four from four record puts them well out in front of the chasing pack, with two games to play away from home.

Kiwi fullback Israel Dagg scored the only try of the first half as the hosts took a 5-3 lead into the break.
A Bryan Habana’s try early in the second half put the Springboks in front, but Aaron Smith hit back to put New Zealand back in the lead, and Aaron Cruden kicked the hosts to victory.

The All Blacks now have a week off, before heading to Argentina.

Meanwhile, Robbie Deans was left a relieved coach after watching his Wallabies come back from 13 points down to beat Argentina 23-19 last night.
