Give the guy a break, it's very slippery out there. He will have some great moments in this game . . . you'll see.

Bad mistake by Love to kick that penalty dead

Sharks not looking at all like scoring a single point after that early period of pressure they managed to apply

"Sloppy from the blacks"

KKKC, if anyone else had posted that I'd assume they meant the All Blacks have been sloppy . . . but in your case, I have to check that's what you meant.

No try by Dmac.
Second/third string sharks did well in the first half. Can they keep it up

Spectacle ruined by Absent sharks players and the conditions.
Good luck gups

Caleb Clarke is in. They might want to check an earlier double movement after the tap and go but looks like they're happy. This will stand. Love has kicked well and this one is also over.

21-0.

Comedy of errors ends with Fineangonofo scoring his second try.

The conditions are poor but the ABs definitely the team adpating better. Love with yet another touchline conversion. 28-0.

Good quick hands by the AB backs and Jordie slides in for another try.

Getting a bit embarrassing for the Sharks now.

Yet another touchline conversion by Love. 35-0.

Ma'a Nonu is on.

Quinn Tupea busts a flimsy defence and more good hands from the ABs means Preston is in under the poles to give Love his first easy kick of the game . . . and he nails it. 42-0. This is now officially embarrassing for a clueless looking Sharks team.

It's not just the AB backs dominating as the Sharks scrum is destroyed . . . then Sam Darry powers through some weak defence to take it over 50.

Love converts. 54-0.

Juju makes a good run but can't offload and it's a scrum to the ABs as the hooter goes. Was hoping the Sharks could at least get on the board.

It's kicked out and it ends 54-0.

You can name just about any AB as a MotM candidate but I'd give it to Quinn Tupea.

Edit: Jordie Barrett named MotM.
