The All Blacks want to break their 6-year losing streak in Wellington when they host the Wallabies in round 6 of the Rugby Championship this weekend.

The All Blacks last tasted victory at the Cake Tin in June 2018 after beating France 26-13.

The previous 5 tests by the All Blacks at the Capital City saw a record of two draws and 3 losses with the recent one against Argentina where they fell 38-30 in round 1 of the Rugby Championship six weeks ago.

Meanwhile, coach Scott Robertson talked about the team’s performance in the competition this year and said they have fronted up, and no negative tension needed to be around that.

He says they discussed it and it is not lengthy but they own how they can improve on it, and the plan is to have adjustments and movement with it.

He adds they are laying out a good mindset around it, practising all the skill sets that are required for it, and then letting the players trust themselves.

Meanwhile, the race for the Rugby Championship title is still open after Argentina narrowly defeated the Springboks 29-28 over the weekend.

The All Blacks will take on the Wallabies at 7.05pm Saturday and South Africa will take on Argentina at 3am Sunday.
