against the All Blacks. The series was drawn 1–all, and the long-running controversy between the countries over the All Blacks' inclusion of Maori players began. The Springboks played five matches in Australia, winning them all.

South Africa then played nineteen matches in New Zealand, winning fifteen, losing two and drawing two.
