The All Blacks produced a commanding performance in Wellington to defeat France 43–17, clinching the mid-year Test series 2–0.
Building on a narrow win in Dunedin, Scott Robertson’s side delivered six tries through Cam Roigard, Ardie Savea, Codie Taylor, Tupou Vaa’i, Will Jordan and Rieko Ioane, with Beauden and Jordie Barrett adding points from the tee.
France managed just two tries in response as New Zealand’s improved execution and set-piece dominance overwhelmed the visitors, who struggled with discipline and defensive lapses.
The All Blacks led 29–0 at halftime and never looked back, underlining their attacking depth and physicality in a statement win.
