MELBOURNE : New Zealand blended set piece dominance with stonewall defence to trounce an undisciplined Argentina side 39-0 and claim their third successive win of a perfect Rugby Championship campaign on the Gold Coast on Sunday.

"We're incredibly proud of that performance to keep them at zero defensively and then we had to really break them down," stand-in captain Brodie Retallick said. The Mario Ledesma-coached Pumas gave up a yellow card in each half and have now failed to score in two successive tests against the All Blacks, following the 38-0 defeat in last year's Tri-Nations.

A stray Pumas hand knocked a Beauden Barrett pass into his toe and he followed the ricocheted ball over the line for one of his easiest tries. Suddenly 15-0 up, the men in black pushed again, winning a penalty in front of goal after the halftime siren.
