Beauden Barrett scores four tries in huge All Blacks' win

Beauden Barrett scored a record-equalling four tries as the All Blacks belted the Wallabies at Eden Park, locking up the Bledisloe Cup for another year.

Match Commentary

80'		Thanks for your company again tonight. The All Blacks were just far too good while the Wallabies must go back to the drawing board once again.
80'		That's fulltime at Eden Park as the All Blacks record a 40-12 win. What a game from Beauden Barrett, who equals Greg Cornelsen's record of four tries in a Bledisloe Cup game.
80'+1		40-12 End of second half
