MINI MATCH | All Blacks v Australia | Sydney, 2026 (Bledisloe Cup)
Video summary
Press to jump
- 1:16Josh Moorby sells a dummy and breaks through for New Zealand's opening try.
- 3:43Peter Lakai finishes from an offload as New Zealand builds its early lead.
- 8:44Beauden Barrett intercepts a loose pass and sprints almost the length of the field.
- 10:33Moorby uses another dummy along the wing for his second try.
- 12:12Tom Wright finishes a multi-phase Australian attack in the corner.
- 14:58The full-time graphic confirms the result of the final Bledisloe Cup Test.
Josh Moorby offers the pass, keeps the ball and finds his way through. His opening try sets the tone for New Zealand's attacking display in Sydney, and he repeats the deception along the wing after halftime.
The All Blacks' official mini match packs those finishes into a replay of their 43-21 win over Australia, securing another Bledisloe Cup series. It reached roughly 230,000 views in its opening 21 hours, far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience for regular videos.
Moorby isn't the only player with a double. Beauden Barrett dives over early, then intercepts a loose Australian pass before halftime and sprints almost the length of the field. In the comments, viewers keep returning to his speed, with one joking that the established international might deserve a chance to prove himself.
There is plenty between those individual moments: Peter Lakai finishes from an offload, Rieko Ioane touches down after a fast backline move, and Wallace Sititi powers over from the base of a scrum. Australia's later replies include Tom Wright finishing a multi-phase attack and Filipo Daugunu running in an interception.
The Sydney coverage extends beyond the mini match. A separate Damian McKenzie passing Short and the postmatch press conference also drew substantially faster starts than their respective usual audiences.

As a Saffa the ABs are looking tight with the quick passes , great to see ABs style is back - always great to watch good rugby.
@guyparsonage4148See it on YouTubeWallabies had some really good moments. They have some really good players they just need to get their game plan and execution of it right. They're electric and slick at their best with powerful forwards. All the best.
