Australia were struggling to paper over the cracks after suffering their seventh straight defeat by New Zealand in their Bledisloe Cup Test in Tokyo.

The All Blacks ran out 32-19 winners over the Wallabies to complete the four-game Bledisloe Cup series with four straight wins on Saturday.

All Black coach Graham Henry expects the Bledisloe Cup Test against Australia to be full-blooded and has named a strong lineup for the match.

Australia coach Robbie Deans on Tuesday dropped veteran George Smith and three others from the Wallabies line-up for the final Bledisloe Cup match.

The All Blacks and the Wallabies say they want to use their Bledisloe Cup clash here on Saturday to promote rugby in the growing Asian market.
