The All Blacks secured a 38-21 victory over the Stormers in their tour match at DHL Stadium in Cape Town on Friday, August 7, 2026. The match was part of the 'Greatest Rivalry' tour, and the result was convincing despite some areas of concern.
Player ratings from the match highlighted a standout performance from fullback Josh Moorby, who showed promise with ball in hand but had some issues under the high ball. However, the headline was the performance of fly-half Harry Holland, who starred in the win, while lock Josh Barrett was described as 'failing an audition' for a regular starting spot.
The All Blacks' next fixture is against the Springboks in the Rugby Championship, with the team looking to build on this performance. The coaching staff will be pleased with the overall result but will likely focus on improving discipline and set-piece execution.
