FULL-TIME: NEW ZEALAND 40-14 AUSTRALIA. Solid bonus point win from the All Blacks. The Boks will have to follow suit and beat Argentina by 39 points or more in order to win the Rugby Championship.
CONVERSION, AUSTRALIA, HODGE! 40-14: Hodge pops a simple conversion over.
TRY, AUSTRALIA, PETAIA! 40-12: One last consolation for the Wallabies as White sets Petaia up to go in underneath the posts.
PENALTY, NEW ZEALAND, MO'UNGA! 40-7: Mo'unga pops the penalty over and brings 40 up for New Zealand.
The All Blacks are showing tremendous hunger, fighting for every tackle and every point, while the Wallabies just look exhausted at the moment.
TRY, NEW ZEALAND, TAUKEI'AHO! 37-7: It's a superb try from the All Blacks as the maul takes them over again and Taukei'aho comes up! Mo'unga's conversion attempt comes off the post.
CONVERSION, WALLABIES, FOLEY! 32-7: Foley pops the extras over with a good kick.
TRY, AUSTRALIA, FAINGA'A! 32-5: Samu has been one of the Wallabies' better players and he throws a glorious inside pass to Fainga'a to set up a consolation try!
Mo'unga pushes his conversion to the right. The score remains 32-0.
TRY, NEW ZEALAND, TAYLOR! 32-0: Whitelock brings the ball down from the lineout and the All Blacks get the maul going. Taylor gets it over for the try!

CONVERSION, NEW ZEALAND, MO'UNGA! 24-0: Mo'unga thumps the conversion over from right underneath the posts.
TRY, NEW ZEALAND, WHITELOCK! 22-0: Whitelock is awarded the try!
The All Blacks start the second half on the front foot. They take the ball through the phases with pick-and-go after pick-and-go. Has Whitelock got over under the posts? On-field decision is try but we are going upstairs.
Off we go for the start of the second half.
HALF-TIME: NEW ZEALAND 17-0 AUSTRALIA. The All Blacks have totally dominated and already have one hand on the Rugby Championship trophy.
The All Blacks weather a spell of Wallabies dominance and go on the break themselves after pouncing on the loose ball. Jake Gordon makes a try-saving takle on Aaron Smith. Samu gets over the ball and wins the penalty at the breakdown!
The Wallabies think they've hit back with a try of their own, but a foot in touch denies them a Samu try! We go back for a Wallabies penalty nonetheless.
PENALTY TRY, NEW ZEALAND! 17-0: Porecki takes the fall for repeated infringements from the Wallabies as he is yellow-carded for an infringement at the rolling maul -- bringing down Savea illegally with the All Blacks camped on the try line. The All Blacks are awarded the penalty try!
CONVERSION, NEW ZEALAND, MO'UNGA! 10-0: Mo'unga slots the extras over, making it look effortless.
TRY, NEW ZEALAND, JORDAN! 8-0: The floodgates have opened. The All Blacks attack down the right with Ardie Savea creating space for Jordan to go round the outside for the first try of the game!
PENALTY, NEW ZEALAND, MO'UNGA! 3-0: Mo'unga puts the first points on the board at last.
This has turned into a really scrappy game, with nothing on the scoreboard and the ball constantly changing hands. New Zealand will have a shot at posts now and the Wallabies are given a team warning for conceding three penalties in quick succession.
The Wallabies' time down to 14 men is up and they're on the attack. However, a knock-on derails them.
The onslaught continues but the Wallabies defence holds firm. They win the penalty at the breakdown following an All Blacks 5m lineout.
New Zealand look to capitalise on their numerical advantage. Beauden Barrett beats four before chipping and chasing towards the corner. Koroibete gets there first and takes the ball into touch.
YELLOW CARD, AUSTRALIA, HOLLOWAY! Big blow for the Wallabies early on as Holloway goes into the sin-bin for dropping his man at a dangerous angle.
KICK-OFF! Irish referee Andrew Brace blows his whistle. The Wallabies get the game underway!
