Wallabies blown away by All Blacks blitz as Bledisloe Cup misery extends to 24th year

New Zealand 50-19 Australia to continue unbeaten run at Eden Park

Les Kiss’s side start bright but given reality check in second half

New Zealand preserved rugby’s established hierarchy with a 50-19 blowout victory over Australia that secures the Bledisloe Cup for a 24th year and pushes the All Blacks’ unbeaten run over the Wallabies at Eden Park into a fifth decade.

The Wallabies lost touch with their hosts in the second half despite a valiant but futile defensive performance led by the captain Harry Wilson, who had scored a try just before half-time to keep his side in the contest.
