All Blacks

Australia’s desire to play running rugby in superb conditions backfired twice as New Zealand pumped them 93-40 across two Tests.

The wisdom of holding a monster truck extravaganza seven days before a rugby Test was questioned by Dave Rennie.

New Zealand crushed Australia 36-7 in the first half to ensure a 2-0 Bledisloe Cup clean sweep on Saturday.

The Wallabies have slumped to a 13th successive loss to the All Blacks with the Kiwis claiming a dominant Bledisloe Cup win in Sydney.

If results go as expected in pool play next year, world No.2 New Zealand will meet top-ranked South Africa in the quarter-finals.

The Wallabies’ chances of snapping a horror losing streak against the All Blacks have taken a big hit.

With last weekend’s thumping win securing the silverware, there had been speculation he would ring the changes.

If the Wallabies aren’t hungry for success after this Bledisloe Cup starvation, then when will they ever be?

It was one-way traffic in the second half as the All Blacks finished with seven tries and a thumping victory at Eden Park.

Australia hasn’t beaten New Zealand at their Auckland fortress since 1986 but are confident after going unbeaten in their last six Tests.
