One instance in the first half made me smile, the Nz forwards moved the ball along the line to the left and Tommy passed it on to the centre, the commentator said " structured play is not the Nz way the play better with power up the middle.
The Aussies were by far the better team.
Yes, they were. The Kiwis had that little patch just before half-time, but overall the Aussies won at a canter.
