Kieran Read promises New Zealand response against Australia

Kieran Read warns Australia that New Zealand will be out for revenge when the sides meet in Auckland.

Kieran Read has warned Australia that New Zealand will come out fighting when the sides meet in Auckland this weekend.

The All Blacks were beaten 27-19 by the Wallabies on Saturday in their Rugby Championship decider at the ANZ Stadium in Sydney.

With the Bledisloe Cup on the line in the return clash, Read has backed New Zealand to gain some revenge over their rivals.

"We want to let our actions do the talking," he is quoted as saying by stuff.co.nz. "We'll go as hard as we can. To win the physical battle you've got to be winning the little things in this game, and getting dominance around the gain-line, and where you carry the ball. We'll be smarter which hopefully will aid us in that area.

"There's a pretty special cup we want to lock away this weekend and it's a must-win game. If we can clean up the breakdown and look after our ball a bit better, we'll be able to build some pressure against these guys which will go a long way to scoring some points."

Read has been capped 74 times by his country since 2008.
