New Zealand secured the Bledisloe Cup for the 11th straight year after beating Australia 27-16 in Wellington on Saturday.
The Wallabies were more competitive than last weekend's encounter in Sydney but the All Blacks made better use of their opportunities which sealed their victory.

Man of the Match: There were several candidates in the All Black pack, who were in charge in the second half. A special mention goes to Tony Woodcock, who was dominant in the scrums and Steven Luatua for a superb showing on defence and attack. But our vote goes to Aaron Smith who got New Zealand's back-line firing with his nippy service, and superb decision-making. He also won his personal duel with Will Genia which is no mean feat.
Moment of the Match: With the score at 10-6, the Wallabies were still in with a shout but Ben Smith's second try put the visitors further on the back-foot and knocked the wind out of their sails.
