- SuperSport commentator gets lesson in All Blacks names
- Gloucester see off Bristol to stay unbeaten
- Springboks record famous victory in Wellington
Cape Town - We all know there's only ONE statistic that really counts in any rugby match - the final score.
As it happened: All Blacks v Springboks
There's no comments column for 'how you got there', it's just that after 80 minutes you're ahead on the scoreboard that matters!
The Springboks recorded one of the great all-time Test wins over their fiercest rivals - the All Blacks - in Wellington on Saturday.
It was just the 36th win in 96 meetings for South Africa.
The official SANZAAR stats from the match make for staggering reading.
Although 'all time' stats aren't kept, it's hard to believe that in rugby union's long history that a losing side has ever dominated the statistics to such a degree as the All Blacks did at the Westpac Stadium.
