The All Blacks again ran the world champion Springboks into submission to win the second Tri-nations rugby Test 31-17 with another four-try bonus point performance here Saturday.
The margin could have been higher had the usually reliable Dan Carter not had an off-night with the boot, missing three conversions and three penalties before he was replaced by Piri Weepu as kicker.
In two Tests against the reigning World and Tri-Nations champions the All Blacks have scored eight tries and conceded only two to firmly lay to rest their nightmare of last year's 0-3 whitewash by the Springboks.
South Africa was again punished for ill-discipline. A week after Bakkies Botha was yellow-carded, his replacement Danie Rossouw was sent from the field in the fourth minute and the All Blacks snared two tries before he reappeared.
But it was the All Blacks ability to recycle the ball and counter-attack, even when deep on defence that the Springboks found hardest to handle.
After the first Test hammering, South African captain John Smit repeatedly said his side had faith in their traditional forward power game and did not need to match the All Blacks free-flow style. But for the second week they found their forwards could not dominate the All Blacks eight and their kicking game only served to feed possession to an attacking machine, although they tried to rectify this in the second half.
Although Victor Matfield regained his lineout dominance, the Springboks again struggled in the scrums while All Blacks loose forwards Richie McCaw and Kieran Read controlled broken play.
