The All Blacks have opened their Rugby Championship campaign with a 41-24 win over Argentina.

New Zealand took a commanding 31-10 lead at halftime, before Los Pumas threatened an early second-half fightback to close the margin to 31-24.

Former All Black and rugby commentator Frank Bunce says the team will be 'satisfied' by the win - despite some issues at the end.
