PERTH (Reuters) -Quinn Tupaea scored two tries as New Zealand fended off Australia 28-14 in rainy Perth on Saturday to give themselves a chance of Rugby Championship glory.

The win put the All Blacks top of the table ahead of defending champions South Africa, but the Springboks can claim back-to-back titles with victory over Argentina at Twickenham later on Saturday.
