All Blacks win Bledisloe II to break Wellington hoodoo

The Wallabies showed early promise but ultimately suffered another defeat to the All Blacks, losing 33-13 in Wellington.

Despite an early try from Fraser McReight, the All Blacks’ back three, led by Caleb Clarke, Will Jordan, and Sevu Reece, proved too strong for Joe Schmidt’s men. The match also marked a special occasion for the All Blacks as they farewelled former captain Sam Cane and celebrated hometown hero TJ Perenara.

The 20-point loss places the Wallabies at the bottom of The Rugby Championship for the second consecutive season, with only one win from six tests. The All Blacks, finishing the tournament on a high note, are likely to secure second place unless Argentina pulls off an upset against South Africa.
