Tom Wright

Yeah.

I, I, I thought if Australia were gonna win, um, the man of the match would've been either Fraser McReight, Ryan Lonergan, Ben Donaldson maybe, maybe Tom Wright.

Mm.

And apart from Tom Wright's try, he and those other four didn't really feature.

Um, yeah, not, not as, not as much.

D- Donaldson and, and Lonergan are, have ...

And then this little tap-on from Benny Donaldson worked out beautiful for Jorgensen.

Then Tom Wright, fellas.

Beautiful play, wasn't it? And just silky, silky hands.

And it's good to see Tommy Wright back himself.

He got moving to his right and he snatched a one-hander.

So Australia playing under another penalty advantage, tapped on, Jorgensen on the angle, holds up the pass, right, done this, Tom Wright through and Australia land the first shot! Meredith, not a good pass, scrapped and passed, tight ahead by Jordan, up and he goes, well done!

Welcome to Sports Day.

What a weekend we had of sport for your Monday night.

So let's hope our boys mark the occasion with a win.

Uh, now fullback Tom Wright, he spoke today.

He says the Wallabies faced the music at their review session.

It's already difficult enough at Eden Park, and, uh, you, you put more pressure on yourselves by, by not executing with the footy, and yeah, they're a pretty handy team at the best of times.

So, uh, fair play to them to be able to capitalize the way that they did.

did.There you go, uh, Tom Wright there.

Now the result extended New Zealand's incredible unbeaten run at Eden Park to 56 consecutive tests.

That's astounding.

And yeah, probably the second, third, fourth best props in the game at the moment.

Switching to rugby union, Tom Wright was talking on an Australian podcast about the Bledisloe and what went wrong at Eden Park.

Yeah, it's a game of moments where we sort of, we earned opportunity to get quite close to the line really early in the second half and we weren't disciplined enough to be able to execute a play and that was right down on their try line so we were pleased with how we started the second half and then sort of a snowball effect of moments.

They sort of dictated the physicality initially I think in the second half and the moment by moment sort of got away from us and we weren't good enough when we had the ball to be able to sort of claw back the same way that they were doing so dictating on you know their terms when they had it against us so yeah we certainly had a good look at that this morning and as I said like it's already difficult enough at Eden Park and you put more pressure on yourselves by not executing with the footy and yeah they're a pretty handy team at the best of times so Fair play to them to be able to capitalise the way that they did.

And, you know, when the wind's sort of in your sail like it was for them after applying so much pressure to us defensively, yeah, it was a little bit difficult for us to sort of swing the bat late

and make sort of a surge, I suppose.

Tom Wright post-match talking about what went wrong in the Bledisloe Cup at Eden Park for the Wallabies.

We'll see if they can rectify that this weekend in Sydney.

And yeah, probably the second, third, fourth best props in the game at the moment.
