All Blacks make Wallabies look like rugby minnows

Australian rugby sank to a horrifying new low at ANZ Stadium on Saturday night as a ruthless All Blacks outfit vented their frustrations from the drawn British & Irish Lions series.

Match Commentary

82'		That's all she wrote from Sydney. Thanks for your company.
81'		Michael Hooper says: "I'm really proud we displayed that Australian spirit in the second half. Some guys really stood up in that second half."
81'		Kieran Read describes the game as "pretty surreal" at times. "Our passes stuck" in the first half, "we carried pretty hard" and "perhaps we took our foot off the throat in the second half". Says NZ "have to be smarter in that final 20 minutes" in Dunedin.
