All Blacks 33 (Sevu Reece, Richie Mo'unga, David Havili, Damien McKenzie tries, Mo'unga 2 con, 3 pens) Australia 25 (Andrew Kellaway, Tom Banks 2 tries, Noah Lolesio con, pen)
FULL TIME - So the All Blacks take the win but I don't think either side will be overly happy with their performances.
The All Blacks lacked discipline and it was the Wallabies who finished the much stronger side, scoring the last three tries. All to play for in Bledisloe II at the same place, same time next week.

82mins - TRY WALLABIES. They make it three in a row as replacement hooker Jordan Uelese scores! Lolesio finally nails a conversion.
81mins - Another penalty for the Wallabies and a 5m lineout.
80mins - Silly stuff there from the All Blacks... they have a lineout but their backs advance inside the 10m before the lineout is over. Wallabies penalty now and they tap and go.
79mins - The Wallabies illegally seal the ball off at the breakdown and the All Blacks have the penalty.
78mins - Attacking lineout for the Wallabies, can they score three tries in a row?
77mins - The Wallabies finishing strongly here. A break from Tom Banks brings them inside the All Blacks' 22, and they win a penalty for offside.
76mins - Penalty Wallabies. It's been a reoccuring theme this for the All Blacks, conceding a penalty straight off the kickoff - something they'll want to cut out for Bledisloe II.
74mins - TRY WALLABIES. A great confidence booster for Noah Lolesio who threads a beautiful grubber, it's chased by Tom Banks who dives on it in for his second try.
73mins - Great scrum from the Wallabies and they win a penalty from it.
72mins - The Wallabies have the ball on halfway - starting to play with some real intent but they lose the ball. All Blacks' scrum it will be.
71mins - Aaron Smith's 100th All Blacks' game comes to an end, replaced by Brad Weber. A special performance from a special player.
70mins - Noah Lolesio misses the conversion again. It's been forgetful night with the boot for him.
68mins - TRY WALLABIES. Nicely worked score from Australia, they persist with pressure in the forwards before moving it wide to their fullback Tom Banks.
67mins - Penalty Wallabies 5m out - and they set up a lineout. Meanwhile, Akira Ioane is replaced by Luke Jacobsen for the All Blacks.
66mins - The Wallabies have an attacking lineout deep inside the All Blacks' 22. Can they salvage something from this game?
64mins - TRY ALL BLACKS. They've all of a sudden put this game all but beyond reach, as Damien McKenzie crosses in the corner. Richie Mo'unga's missed conversion will be his last act of the game, who is replaced by Beauden Barrett.
63mins - More attacking ball here for the All Blacks as they make their way inside the 5m line.
62mins - The Wallabies knock on and concede a penalty at scrum time - the All Blacks kick for touch. Meanwhile, Jordie Barrett is on for Sevu Reece and Samisoni Taukei'aho is on for Codie Taylor.
60mins - The kickoff is taken by the All Blacks and Aaron Smith returns with a boxkick.
59mins - The conversion is wide from Richie Mo'unga.
58mins - TRY ALL BLACKS. What a pass by the centurion Aaron Smith! He goes wide to David Havili who touches down in the corner.
57mins - The lineout is good and they go on the attack again the All Blacks. Looking good here and under a penalty advantage.
56mins - All Blacks win the scrum penalty and it's quickly taken by Damien McKenzie, who's smartly run into a Wallabies player who wasn't back the 10m. The pressure is relieved as NZ now have an attacking lineout.
54mins - All Blacks with the ball deep inside their own half, they avoid kicking and have lost the ball. Possibly playing for territory would've been the best option there.
53mins - Substitution for the All Blacks as Karl Tu'inukuafe replaces George Bower in the front row.
51mins - TRY ALL BLACKS. It's an intercept from Richie Mo'unga, who runs 80m with no problems! The lead is now substantial for the All Blacks as Mo'unga converts his own try.
50mins - Wallabies have attacking ball, but again All Blacks' defence is solid.
49mins - Lolesio drags it left... these misses proving crucial for the Wallabies. Richie Mo'unga drops out from the 22.
48mins - Oh how the tide turns. The Wallabies win the scrum penalty and Noah Lolesio is going to line up a goal from 50m.
46mins - NO TRY. What would have been one of the great All Black tries is ruled out by a forward pass. A pass from Aaron Smith to Brodie Retallick during the attack is deemed to be forward.
45mins - Hold fire - we have a TMO referral here for a forward pass.
45mins - WHAT A TRY TO THE ALL BLACKS! They go 100m and Sevu Reece has a double, started by a Richie Mo'unga break right on his own goal line. Outstanding.
44mins - All Blacks lineout is good... just. They should be able to exit here.
43mins - Wallabies have the ball but the All Blacks' defence is solid, forcing Australia to kick. It will be a defensive lineout for New Zealand inside their 22.
42mins - Wallabies have a scrum on the All Blacks' 10m line - their first opportunity of the second half.
40mins - The All Blacks kick off and straight away concede their eight penalty at the breakdown - not the start coach Ian Foster would have wanted.
Second half
....
8pm - Both teams are back on Eden Park. No changes for either side.
7:50pm - Well, the All Blacks go to the break with a decent lead but it was a far from convincing half - from both teams for that matter.
Both sides had opportunities and failed to capitalise through unforced errors. The key for the Wallabies here could be that all-important breeze behind them in the second half.
One gets the feeling penalty goals may be a deciding factor in this one - and both teams have two secret kicking weapons on the bench; Jordie Barrett for the All Blacks and Reece Hodge for the Wallabies.
Half time
40mins - TRY ALL BLACKS. Sevu Reece has found himself in the forward pack and scores off a pick-and-go! That could be crucial in the context of this game, scoring right on half time. Richie Mo'unga adds the two.
40mins - It's a massive rolling maul that's collapsed and the All Blacks break away. Edging closer here through pick-and-go.
39mins - Sam Whitelock says no to a gift three points - he wants a try and opts for the lineout.
38mins - Penalty for offside - Michael Hooper was in front of his kicker and the All Blacks have a penalty from a handy position.
38mins - Noah Lolesio misses the conversion and it remains 9-8.
35mins - TRY WALLABIES. WOW! Australia throw over the top of the lineout and break straight through the All Blacks backline - left wing Andrew Kellaway scores!
34mins - Lineout is good again from the Wallabies and the All Blacks are caught offside. Avoidable penalties these being given away by New Zealand.
33mins - The All Blacks have a lineout just inside their own half. Richie Mo'unga makes a half break and puts Akira Ioane in a gap - but the Wallabie shut it down and the ball is in touch.
31mins - PENALTY GOAL WALLABIES. Lolesio nails it from a handy position and Australia are on the board.
29mins - David Havili's return kick is charged down from the kickoff and the All Blacks have to scramble it into touch. Wallabies have attacking ball here, and they win a penalty for a high shot by Brodie Retallick. Lolesio will have another crack at the posts.
28mins - PENALTY GOAL ALL BLACKS. Beautiful strike from Mo'unga as he nails his toughest kick of the night so far.
27mins - Penalty All Blacks! They win the breakdown for holding on, Richie Mo'unga will line up another goal. The kick is 45m on the angle.
27mins - Turnover Wallabies - brilliant work at the breakdown by none other than Michael Hooper.
26mins - All Blacks showing some attacking intent here as they bring it beyond halfway.
25mins - Lolesio's penalty is away to the right - it remains 6-0.
24mins - Penalty to Australia for offside. Noah Lolesio will line up his first goal.
22mins - David Havili returns the kickoff. The Wallabies have a half chance to break away but kick into the All Blacks' goalline - line dropout.
21mins - PENALTY GOAL ALL BLACKS. Richie Mo'unga adds his second penalty.
20mins - All Blacks win the scrum penalty and it's right out in front.
19mins - Oh dear, it's a bad mistake by Tom Banks who's knocked on from a kick return. All Blacks have the scrum just outside the Wallabies' 22.
18mins - PENALTY GOAL ALL BLACKS. Richie Mo'unga adds the three to put NZ in front.
17mins - In fact, Richie Mo'unga is backing himself here. He's got a decent breeze behind him.
16mins - This time the All Blacks win the scrum penalty. Is this within Damien McKenzie's range?
15mins - Forward pass from Ardie Savea to Codie Taylor. Basic errors really costing both sides here. Wallabies with the scrum on halfway.
14mins - Tom Banks makes the clearance from the scrum but it's not out, Rieko Ioane makes a half break.
13mins - Another mistake... Mo'unga has the ball ripped out by Hunter Paisami. Scrum Wallabies.
12mins - Obstruction in midfield by the Wallabies and the All Blacks have their first penalty. Richie Mo'unga kicks for touch and it's a good one - inside the 22.
11mins - It looks crooked, but they're let away with it and the lineout is successful. Wallabies with posession inside their own half.
10mins - Penalty at scrum time against the All Blacks. Do the Wallabies dare attempt another lineout?
10mins - Another mistake, this time from Ardie Savea. Wallabies have the scrum.
9mins - It's another shocker! The lineout is overthrown and the All Blacks have it inside the Wallabies' 40.
8mins - The All Blacks look to go wide off the scrum but they've gone too wide - as Sevu Reece is taken into touch. Can the Wallabies get this lineout right?
7mins - Another botched lineout for the Wallabies! It's not straight. Very messy start this from both teams.
6mins - Stable scrum for the All Blacks but David Havili loses the ball as he goes into contact. The player in front of him is ruled offside and it's a penalty.
5 mins - The Wallabies have another shocker at lineout time and knock on off the top - make that two opportunities lost to attack inside the All Blacks' half.

1 minute - The Wallabies have an early penalty inside their own half for obstructing a jumper in the lineout - they're turning down 3 points and opting to kick for the corner.

Kia ora and welcome to live updates of the first Bledisloe Cup test between the All Blacks and Wallabies from Eden Park in the city of sails, Auckland.
Despite a test series win against France last month, Australia will be without star players Marika Koroibete, Pone Fa'amausili and Isi Naisarani - stood down for breaching team protocols.
Meanwhile, the All Blacks' XV is not too dissimilar to the one that lined up in the second test against Fiji in July. Ardie Savea retains his starting spot but moves to the back of the scrum, making room for Dalton Papali'i to start on the openside flank.
The midfield remains unchanged with in-form David Havili and the experienced Anton Lienert-Brown set to pair up against Australia for the first time.
Join us for all the action from 7pm - kickoff is at 7:05pm.
