42 wins in 49 Tests: These Springboks are simply relentless

The Springboks v All Blacks third and final Test decider in South Africa is as good as a World Cup final. What has the New Zealand narrative been on the eve of the biggest Test in South Africa since the series decider against the British & Irish Lions in 2021?
