The Kiwis beat Great Britain in their Tri-Nations match in London today.
The final score was 42-26.
The Kiwis were 24-8 ahead at halftime, but the homeside clawed back.
Two tries each from Brent Webb and Clinton Toopi sealed the win.
The win came despite the video referee doing New Zealand no
favours.
The Kiwis ran in seven tries to four, but they had another two Manu Vatuvei tries disallowed by the man upstairs.
Both times, the young winger appeared to have scored legitimate tries.
Vatuvei did manage to score one try, while Jake Webster and Paul Rauhihi both scored.
Stacey Jones had a flawless day with the boot, kicking all seven conversions.
