The Bledisloe Cup will stay in New Zealand for at least one more year after the All Blacks defeated the Wallabies 43-5 at the opening of the Tri Nations at the Sydney Olympic Stadium.
The Wallabies had their backs to the wall for most of the game after conceding four goals in the first half when the All Blacks took a 26-0 lead at break.
Noah Lolesio opened the Wallabies’ account with a debut attempt at the start of the second half, but the All Blacks added two more five-point points to their record for comfortable winners.
The All Blacks have been organizing the Bledisloe Cup since 2003.
The two teams will meet again next Saturday evening in Brisbane.
There’s more to come.
