Summary

Thank you very much for joining me this afternoon. So near and yet so far for the Wallabies. Another Bledisloe Cup sweep for the All Blacks.

All eyes turn now to France and the 2023 Rugby World Cup, which is just a month away. New Zealand will head to the northern hemisphere hopeful of a fourth triumph. Australia; well, who knows? They remain a bits-and-pieces outfit, which could make them either dark horses or victims of massive upsets, depending on which version turns up on the day (and for how long).

I’ll leave you with Angus Fontaine’s match report, and see you back here very soon.

Dunedin resident Tony Mole is happy with the result, for a left-field reason. “The audacity of the Aussies having “Cadbury” on their shirt whilst playing in Dunedin. The Cadbury factory in Dunedin was closed in 2018 and I, for one, have not eaten their product since.”
