The five key moments in Bledisloe II at Eden Park


Recommended Posts

FOR the second straight week the Wallabies threatened to make a game of it.

But once again, the All Blacks’ class shinned through as the world champions ran all over the Wallabies in the second half to win 40-12.
Here at the moments that mattered in order.

In banging over a cheeky field goal immediately after scoring the opening try of the night — his first of four — and not allowing the TMO to get involved, Beauden Barrett gave it away.

The All Blacks’ fly-half burst onto a pass from his halves partner Aaron Smith in the 13th minute and split Izack Rodda and Lukhan Tui to score under the posts.

But, it shouldn’t have been allowed, for Smith’s pass was only a metre forward.

“I just wonder whether the All Blacks thought there might have been some doubt on that inside pass because Beauden Barrett took the drop goal conversion before the TMO could intervene,” Fox Sports commentator Greg Clark said.

“Smart thinking.”

Smart thinking, indeed.

ROLE REVERSAL — 29th minute
After being smashed at the set piece in Bledisloe I, Michael Cheika dropped his front-row to the bench and recalled Scott Sio immediately from injury to partner Allan Alaalatoa.

The front-row change up worked a treat in the first half.

After a brilliant grubber from Jack Maddocks down the left-hand touchline and subsequent chase from Marika Koroibete, the Wallabies were hot on attack and soon after were awarded a scrum after a knock on from the All Blacks as they desperately tried to hang on in defence.

Four scrums and two penalties later, Will Genia spotted some space after another dominate hit at the set-piece and managed to find his way to the line.

It was a big moment and one that got the Wallabies back on level footing.

BEALE’S COSTLY DROP — 38th minute
On the back of a brilliant breakdown win from David Pocock at the breakdown in the 36th minute, the Wallabies got some fantastic field position — unfortunately they couldn’t make the most of the opportunity.

After the All Blacks’ defence initially halted the Wallabies’ progress, a series of strong runs which dented the opposition line got the visitors over the gain line and allowed quick ruck speed.

But a drop from Kurtley Beale proved costly as he attempted to break the line.

The All Blacks countered from close to their own 22m line and ran the length of the field to score as Barrett dotted down for his second.

It was beautiful counterattacking rugby, which once again highlighted the gulf in class between the two sides and proved to be the key moment of the game.

PLAIN DUMB — 41st minute
Despite being firmly in the game at half time, the Wallabies were guilty in the first half of giving away a number of unnecessary penalties.

The ill-disciplined theme continued in the second half, and they never recovered.

An off the ball tackle from Alaalatoa on Jordie Barrett on halfway saw Wayne Barnes award the All Blacks a penalty.

Eleven phases later, All Blacks loose-head prop Joe Moody ran a superb line back at the Wallabies’ smallest man on the field Will Genia and neither he nor Izack Rodda could stop the big man from crashing over from close range.

From 7-7 after 35 minutes, the All Blacks led 21-7 after 44 minutes.

The five minutes either side of halftime once again proving catastrophic for the Wallabies.

TOO GOOD — 62nd minute
Pick your culprit: Michael Hooper, Sekope Kepu or Rob Simmons.

All three of the Wallabies’ forwards made defensive errors in the lead up to Barrett’s third try.

But at one point in time you’ve got to tip your hat at the classy No 10.

There is no quicker international fly-half and it is that point in difference that separates Barrett from the remainder of the pack.
