New Zealand have not lost three successive Tests since 1998

Wellington — Argentina will not have the element of surprise on their side in Newcastle on Saturday when they try to repeat their shock Tri-Nations win over New Zealand, All Blacks assistant coach John Plumtree says.

The All Blacks have not lost three successive Tests since 1998, when they went on to drop five in a row. “We know what the Argentinians are all about now,” Plumtree told reporters on Tuesday. “We’ve seen them play twice, and we’ll see how we get on against them on the weekend.” “When the All Blacks get beaten it’s when defences dominate our attack,” Plumtree said. “We do see opportunities, but we’ve got to be good enough to take those opportunities and see that space and look to get the ball to that space.
