Wow, this means that the All Blacks have outscored their opponents in Auckland 630-277. And we have outscored or tri-nations rivals 44-33 (Sth Africa) and 151-99 (Aussie).
Note also that our winning streaks in Auckland and Edinburgh can get larger but none of losing streaks can. Sweet.
We should start playing all our home games not in auckland in Edinburgh. 102 years unbeaten? Thats fkn awesome!
