New Zealand will be looking to extend their 17-match winning streak to break their own record this weekend against Australia. That 18th win has eluded the All Blacks before, but it almost seems set in stone that they can complete a Bledisloe Cup whitewash over the Wallabies this year.

Rugby Championship Odds: Wallabies Tipped to Bounce Back Against Springboks

Australia’s set pieces will be put under pressure as the Wallabies look to avoid a seventh straight Test loss when they take on South Africa in Brisbane, Australia, in the Rugby Championship on Saturday. New Zealand exposed severe deficiencies in the Wallabies in its two Bledisloe Cup wins last month as the All Blacks consistently stole the ball from the throw in.

New Zealand’s All Blacks were crowned Bledisloe Cup champions for the 14th consecutive year, as they took an unassailable 2-0 series lead over Australia thanks to a 29-9 victory in Wellington, New Zealand, on Saturday.
