Right, I need 9 more for my bru, have ABs by 18.
Surfer Dude on for Toomua… who’s been ordinary
All Blacks scrum… 5m out… middle of the field, ideal attacking opportunity
Wobblies under the cosh in the scrums and on the field.
Easy peasy penalty slotted by Taylor.
All Blacks 21 / 9 Wallabies
Nails and coffin, springs to mind, at the moment
For my Bru I need the score to stay as is…. unfortunately there is still 20 mins to go in the match!
Cooper makes a big difference at #10…Wallas must just get the ball to him.
Wobblies are clueless at the moment. Says something about the ABs that they haven’t been taking more advantage of it.
The difference Jake White would have given the Wallabies is a brains trust, and that is something that looks to be clearly lacking amongst this Wallabies side.
And Tom Taylor slots yet another penalty.
All Blacks 24 / 9 Wallabies
Wallas have lost the plot.
ABs seem content to just cruise their way to victory here. They still need their 4th try, though there is still 10 mins left.
Tryyyyyyyyyyyy Israel Folau, Aussie
Wow, just when they really needed a bit of individual brilliance. Well done Aussies
Falou intercept! Lucky break for Oz against the run.
All Blacks 24 / 16 Wallabies
And the Wobblies hit back with an intercept. It was the only way that they would get closer. Maybe now the ABs will go up another gear…
MaKou knocks, out wide right, but they come back for the All Blacks penalty.
Dagg going for goal
All Blacks 27 / 16 Wallabies
Nonu off, Colin Slade on.
Moore off, Saia Faingaa on
Wobblies are lucky the gap is only 11 points with 5 mins to go.
Nic White on for Genia too
3 Minutes to go…. and it looks like the All Blacks can’t get 2 more tries for their bonus point… goodie
All Blacks players in front of the kicker… Wallas penalty
Now the All Blacks must deny the Wallas a score to come within 7… deny them Log points, that is
Mogg passes out to touch…
Secondes left
Mogg has been very ordinary in two tests. Can’t see him keeping his place
All Blacks penalty for obstruction
Time is up, next break in play ends the game
