Argentina looked like they gave the All Blacks way too much respect in Buenos Aires and what we ended up with was literally a game of two distinct halves. The damage had been done so far as New Zealand were concerned by halftime.The All Blacks were clinical and for skipper Kieran Read to decide at a penalty goal chance, were going to score a try and were going to camp down here until we get it, demonstrated their intent and that they were never really scared of losing the game. They looked the challenge right in the eye.That was clear in the scrums where, in the first half, the All Blacks took the Argentina pack apart. And after that they had nothing left. Argentina pride themselves on their scrum but the All Blacks demolished it and they had no game.The All Blacks defence was absolutely massive. They got up in the Pumas faces and took them apart.Anton Lienert-Brown was given a start at centre and he took it with two hands. It is actually a real concern for anyone who gets tapped on the shoulder and told they are going to be given a rest because there is a chance they may never get back again.I see Ben Smith said please dont rest me, but that may be the only way we get new players involved. In yesteryear you would have called it rotation but lets be honest, rotation was never a dirty word. Its good coaching, its developing, its giving other players an opportunity and its building a group of good players and they are expanding their selection options.Graham Henry brought in the rotation process way back when everyone said he couldnt do that, but now Steve Hansen is actually showing why he needs to do it and there can be no doubt that it is the correct thing to do. But, of course, he doesnt call it rotation and hes got away with it quite nicely.This weekend it is a case of the Springboks worrying about the Springboks. The All Blacks will have flown to Durban with a lot more work-ons which is scary. Argentina were put to the sword in the first 40 minutes, but the All Blacks line speed being was so fast that they did tend to get offside a fraction which the assistant referees were calling.But South Africa can only go back to the best game they can play. The Lions style hasnt worked for them and it says everything when they couldnt get within 10m of the Australian goal-line.The All Blacks will show respect to the South Africans - tradition demands that - but they are all fighting for positions and their biggest threat is the bloke behind them creating all the competition in the squad which brings out the best in them and it is a really good place to be.There is the other factor, the looming world record for successive Test wins. That can be a distraction. They have said that they will concentrate on what is in front of them - the next game and all that. But the record will be looming in the background.Theyll all be aware of it, its a world record at tier-one level after all, but theyve just got to be business as usual because the next game could be a banana skin if they take their eye off who they are playing.The media, the public and the fans have this feeling they are going to do it, and thats easy for us sitting on the couch or on the sideline predicting the future; but were not the guys who have to run out onto the arena and do the job. So the All Blacks want their heads focused on what that job is.And the Springboks will know that is at the back of the All Blacks minds. If there is one team that can pull out a big game just because it is the All Blacks, it is South Africa. The Boks arent playing great rugby at the moment, but they will be full of passion on home soil.Its worth remembering the 1995 World Cup final and everyone saying that all the All Blacks had to do was turn up on the day and win it. We all talk about the food poisoning and that the All Blacks werent on their game, but the reality is South Africa were fired up and were men possessed that day and they won the World Cup. That was a banana skin that no-one saw coming.Their supporters are some of the most passionate rugby fans in the world, second probably only to the Kiwis.Durban is a great place and that will probably, if anything, help the All Blacks. The climate is good; its at sea level and its a nice place to play but it is a very hostile environment at Kings Park. The fans are so close to the field and the tiers of the stadium have the crowd right on top of you. But that shouldnt faze the All Blacks; theyve all played there and South Africa is pretty much a second home to a professional rugby player.And the other interesting thing is the choice of London for the Argentina-Australia game. It was probably a good result for the Aussies because their flight to London from South Africa along the same time line would be easier than flying on to Argentina. It will have been a bit tougher for the Pumas.Being Argentinas home game it will be interesting to see how they approach it, given the sides played there last year in the World Cup semifinal where Australia claimed the win.Twickenham is one of the best stadiums in the world and theres certainly lots of Australian fans living in London and enough rugby purists to watch a Championship game.

Thousands of Southern California fans enveloped the Trojans to celebrate an improbable win secured by an interim coach, an inconsistent kicker and a thin defence that wouldnt break. Durham 207 (Patel 5-32, Barker 3-29) and 195-3 (Borthwick 92, Stoneman 80) drew with Warwickshire 381 for 8 dec (Westwood 127, McCarthy 3-56, Rushworth 3-94)Scorecard A stand of 151 between Scott Borthwick and Mark Stoneman ensured Durham were able to hold out for a draw in the Specsavers County Championship match against Warwickshire at Chester-le-Street.Durham were only ten behind with eight wickets standing when Stoneman fell for 80 and Borthwick went on to make 91 before he departed five balls before hands were shaken.Rikki Clarke came on bowling off spin and his first ball was so wide of off stump Borthwick could not resist flailing at it, only to get a big inside edge into his stumps.Durham were on 195 for three, 21 ahead with 22 overs still availabel when a draw was declared, Warwickshire taking 11 points and Durham eight.It was a welcome return to form for Borthwick, whose form slumped when he was widely reported to be on the verge of England selection.Things looked ominous for Durham when, with 84 overs to bat, they lost Keaton Jennings for a duck in the fifth, when he pushed forward and edged Keith Barker behind.But Borthwick was soon stroking Barker effortlessly through the covers, while Stonemann had made only one when he whipped Chris Wright over long leg for six.ddddddddddddPatel came on for the 14th over and conceded only seven runs in his first nine overs, going closest to a breakthrough when Stoneman missed an attempted cut on 45 and was almost bowled.A repeat of the stroke brought the three runs which took him to 50 as nine runs suddenly came off Patels tenth over. Both batsmen completed their half-centuries off 93 balls and continued neck and neck as Durham reached 162 for one at tea, only 12 behind. Stoneman was bowled by Patel without addition.Resuming on 344 for 7 in the morning, Warwickshire added 37 in ten overs, losing Tim Ambrose for 50, before declaring 174 ahead. Barker was unbeaten on 43.Warwickshire captain Ian Bell said: We came in this morning excited about our opportunity considering the amount of movement there had been in the pitch.But it was not to be. This was a better day for batting, whereas yesterday would have been a good day to bowl. It seems to be a trend of the season that every time we get in a good position the weather gets in the way.
