When the Springboks arrived in New Zealand later that year nobody expected them to win the series.South Africa had other ideas however as they came back to deal New Zealand two convincing defeats; a 13–6 win at Lancaster Park in Christchurch and a 17–6 win at Eden Park in Auckland, taking the series 2–1.
The 1937 Springbok team remains the only Springbok team ever to have won a series in New Zealand
