TRY ALL BLACKS!

TRY WALLABIES!

All Blacks may have fallen asleep for a second there.

Cooper's kicking tonight has been exceptional. He converts the try and the Wallabies go into the break trailing 30-19.

Halftime: ALL BLACKS 30 WALLABIES 19

What a half of footie. The Wallabies haven't actually been too bad, but the All Blacks have been brilliant. They have scored two of the finest tries you are likely to see this year and have just been super clinical up front and super stubborn in defence. But the Wallabies are hanging in there. Quade Cooper hasn't missed a kick, or a put a foot wrong, and the try before halftime will give them hope. They only trail by 11 and are still very much in this. Don't go anywhere.

Sam Cane has been blistering in that opening spell. The Aussies haven't been able to contain him, could be one of his best performances in the black shirt.

Kudos to the punter who bet 5k that the All Blacks would be leading at halftime by between 8-14 points. He is now 15k richer.

Dunedin is the city of firsts - first stadium with a roof, first university in NZ, first nude rugby international. And the first time the ABs ever performed Kapa O Pango, in 2005.

We are back underway now and the All Blacks are putting the Wallabies under early pressure.

Cruden disappoints with a sloppy pass and the Wallabies have a chance to regroup. But then they are penalised for not releasing and the ABs will have another pop at goal.

Cruden slots the penalty from right infront. ABs lead 33-19.

Nonu and Folau trade kicks and it ends in the hands of Cruden.

This time Nonu, Cooper than Dagg return kicks and Folau runs the ball back.
