Soft try. Can't afford that against Australia.

Opps, Australia with a soft try against the run of play.

Go again, boys, go again!

A physical game with lots of offloads and ball movement has always been the style that can give the Aussies problems , our best victories over them have always been when we perfect that

Next ABs defence coach should be the NZ league defensive coach

Great defence and the Aussies spill the ball. Beauitful!

BBC online is obviously running a minte behind..

Loving the passion of the Kiwis.

A scintillating 40 mins of world class sport

14-10 after 38 minutes.

Great half of footy by the kiwis. Hopefully we can seal the deal

Best 40 minutes of sport I've seen all year.

@sparky Agreed. By far. Loved the shot of the coaches box after that try.

Why do I have hope. Fool me a dozen times...

Building us up to tear us down

That was a great first half. Let's go win this!

Make the wlc bastads have to pay to send the ausies home early

Hey @Crazy-Horse, you know you wanna...

Only concern for me , the points don’t reflect our general dominance ,

And the Aussies do have that ability to turn opportunities into points whenever they get them
