    A character-building night for Ardie Savea

    A character-building night for Ardie Savea


    The stand-in All Blacks captain has overseen a 19-17 victory in the 100th test against South Africa in Townsville, that also sees them lift the Rugby Championship.

    Savea says he'll learn a lot about being skipper in a tight test.



    The two sides square off again next weekend on the Gold Coast.

    Meanwhile the Wallabies have beaten Argentina 27-8.
