Richie McCaw hails New Zealand recovery

New Zealand captain Richie McCaw hails the All Blacks for defeating rivals Australia to win the Bledisloe Cup.

New Zealand captain Richie McCaw has praised his side for beating Australia to win the Bledisloe Cup.

The All Blacks recovered from last weekend's defeat to the Wallabies in Sydney by earning an emphatic 41-13 triumph at Eden Park on Saturday.

The match was particularly special for McCaw, who won a record 142nd Test cap.

"The Bledisloe means a hell of a lot," he told reporters. "Sport's a funny old thing. Last week we were on the receiving end of it, but in true style of what it means to be an All Black we [regrouped] to put a performance together."

New Zealand start their Rugby World Cup defence on September 20 against Argentina.
