That Baker pass to no one turned the game and the Aussies just took control thereafter. Frustrating.

Leroy Carter looked pretty slow there.

Nevertheless, try Collier. Baker converts.

7 - 0

Stargazer

And did Carter just butcher a try? Geez, he should have grounded that. Terrible.
The TMO says it's okay though.
Wrong call, but fine to me.

12 - 0 NZ

Great try to Sione Molia!

NZ 17 - 0 Spain

That's the half time score.

The commentator just explained that the number of men's core nations will be reduced from 16 to 14(?) next year.

At the end of the 2023 Series, the team finishing 16th will be automatically relegated.

Teams placed 12 through to 15 go to the annual Challenger Series to determine who remain core nations or who get promoted to the core nations.

Stargazer

Geez, McGarvey-Black just threw an awful pass and gifted an easy try to Spain.

17 - 7 NZ

Stargazer

Brady Rush answers with a good team try.

24 - 7 NZ

Stargazer

Amanaki Nicole gets a yellow for a "neck roll". Super soft card.

Aussies have two in the bin.

That playmaker for France, woeful.

@ACT-Crusader extra time?

Dickson sent to the bin. No idea what for. I didn't notice anything that warranted a card, but I may be wrong.
