Bledisloe I | Winners and Losers

Here are the Winners & Losers from the 28-31 win.

Winners:

Wallace Sititi:

Sititi, who broke out as a number 8, was big again today following some great performances against the Springboks. He made 53 meters off his 12 carries with 9 tackles and a turnover. It is evident that he will be in the All Black set up for a long time still


Ardie Savea:


Savea, with today's try, has become the highest try scoring forward in All Balack history. Two turnovers as well as the highest tackling New Zealander on the night.

Cortez Ratima:

Ratima was superb with some brilliant decisoin making in setting up an All Black try.

Harry Wilson and Fraser McReight:

Both thse Wallabies were clearly the top performing Australians on the day with some superb carries and solid defence

Losers:

The 10's:

Both Noah Lolesio and Damian McKenzie had performances to forget, while they did show some good moments on a whole they would want to improve.

Wallaby Defence:

The Wallabies looked to have a poor defensive shape followed by a passive defence on a whole. They will need to recity this in order to be competitive next week
