The All Blacks beat the Wallabies to win the Bledisloe Cup in Wellington. Who was your man of the match?
The All Blacks beat the Wallabies 27 - 16 in Wellington to retain the Bledisloe Cup and go to the top of the Rugby Championship 2013. The game had flashes of brilliance, but was more error-ridden than last week's game in Sydney. Who was your man of the match?
It was a funny old game with some of the stars from last week like Richie McCaw not really having a great game. I think the Wallabies stepped things up a notch this week and were great at the breakdown with Scott Fardy, Michael Hooper and Ben Mowen playing well.
Tom Taylor was solid in his test debut, while Ben Smith scored a double. It is hard to single out any player specifically, but I think Steven Luatua was awesome.
There were also some great players for the Wallabies. I thought Israel Folau and James O'Connor actually played well, but had limited involvement. While Michael Hooper was impressive, I thought Scott Fardy was great in his first test match start.
Who was your man of the match?
My vote goes to Steven Luatua with Scott Fardy, Michael Hooper and Ben Smith getting my other votes.
