    The All Blacks kick off the defence of their Tri-Nations crown against old foes Australia at Eden Park on Saturday with the pressure on them to rediscover their best form.

    New Zealand have dominated the southern hemisphere`s premier competition in recent years with four straight victories but they were far from their all-conquering best against France and Italy last month and now face an fast-improving Australia side intent on ending their own Tri-Nations and Bledisloe Cup drought.

    Thanks to the Aussies last weekend, it's game on ... though my Kiwi mates (ever the optimists, them) reckon they won't do it.

    Don't the Saffers just need one point from the next two matches?

    Hey,

    Yeah, I think that SA was pretty close to clinching it and with yesterday's 32-29 victory over NZ at Waikato (nice stadium, BTW!), that should pretty much sew it up for the 'Boks.

    One question: does the Bledisloe have an official site? I tried looking in the past for one, but I got a bunch of links to news stories and others containing spyware and my computer crashed and burned shortly thereafter, IIRC.

    Thanks a lot in advance!
