Carter stars for All Blacks

New Zealand completed a 4-0 Bledisloe Cup clean sweep over Australia, their first since 1972, by winning the Tokyo Test 32-19.

Scoring two tries to one, New Zealand benefited from a 22-point haul from fly-half Dan Carter, who converted both tries and landed six penalties.

It was a more committed Australian side who showed they had regained their physicality to put the experience of their 33-6 loss to the All Blacks in Wellington behind them. But they were still unable to find the finesse to put Graham Henry's side under sufficient pressure.
