The Wallabies are suffering from growing pains under new coach Joe Schmidt in this year's Rugby Championship. Two losses to South Africa were followed up by a good win on the road against Argentina, and Australia looked good to get a second in a row when they found themselves 20-3 ahead in Santa Fe.

The last time Australia secured the Bledisloe Cup, the names Matt Burke, Steve Larkham, George Gregan and George Smith were inked in the matchday program.

All Blacks coach Scott Robertson admitted his delight at winning the Bledisloe Cup for the first time in his career was tempered by a realisation his team remain a work in progress after their narrow win over Australia in Sydney on Saturday.
