The All Blacks got back to winning form in their Bledsiloe Cup decider against Australia Saturday, dropping the Wallabies 51-20.

New Zealand's result came on the heels of a 12-12 draw to open the tournament on Aug. 16.

Said result had Australia coach Ewen McKenzie baiting the All Blacks ahead of the rematch, calling them out in a pre-match press conference.

"We want them to bring their A game because we are going to bring ours," McKenzie said on Friday.

And Bring their A game, the All Blacks did.

New Zealand thundered out to a 23-6 halftime lead on the back of two tries within three minutes, the first coming on a penalty to the Wallabies.

Richie McCaw would lead the charge in the second half, scoring a pair of tries and helping bring the All Blacks' total to six on the match.

The result puts New Zealand in second through two matches, one point behind the undefeated Springboks by virtue of getting the bonus point in this match.
