00:57in the engine room on the front foot mollis city will try and get over the ball he got a
01:02good
01:02piece of it too playing the ball on the ground past the counter run just an early sign now these
01:07conditions are going to play a part tonight the early penalty the way of the sharks
01:12yeah they get good initiative through the sharks see yaya the fullback spotted the opportunity the
01:17ball went on the ground it was the counter ruck that was the most impressive from the sharks
01:21went right through the all blacks and managed to turn it over the all blacks tried to scrape it back
01:25on the
01:25ground which has resulted in this penalty and obviously intent moyo is going for touch
01:32the sharks looking for the dream start line up on carl thank you six
01:41receiver start for carl preston tonight in the all-black jersey
01:58the one call from carl and david will keep this ready for the wing of edewain swart the hooker
02:16the middle and so down it goes and the david's just calling in a bit of support
02:21one off the rack he finds murray costa
02:26now he goes to the big block forward again
02:28andre starts and falling david's this time away to cetuka
02:34strong on his feet manu cetuka wrestling his way towards the five meter line still alive for the
02:38sharks and tipsy but the lazy and david's little step up the rack himself
02:45he likes trying to get over the ball
02:48looking for the opening try of this game
02:52full of running early inside the five they go david's what's a couple of players away to his
02:58left finds edwan swart
03:04very close to the line all blacks
03:06some stout defense on starson
03:10and in the end
03:12ukali's whistle guys good start though for the home team here in difficult conditions
03:17oh it certainly was they stayed nice and patient as well good ball control in these difficult
03:24conditions and went oh so very close some resilient all blacks defense held them up but only just
03:32they've been loved with the goal line dropout straight down the center of kings park again and
03:36once more a chance for i don't you took it and formally with the lions
03:43in the urc all blacks trying to get over the ball with kyle preston getting a piece of it
03:47in though it's behind great starson the touch for no no the sharks lock forward david's out the back it
03:55goes boyo sends this one up floating toward the 22 meter line then he an interested
04:00shots coming through as damian mckenzie will claim the mark
04:05in four minutes all black's pinned down it's not that territory too happy either
04:13damian mckenzie i think it's the way he came down damian mckenzie obviously had to leave the ground
04:18the kick was really pinpoint from lucy moyo
04:23mckenzie had to leave the ground when he came down he possibly twisted his ankle they're having to play on
04:27so reuben love makes the clearance and it's a good one as well but the sharks dictating at the moment
04:36we can walk this one off mckenzie
04:42certainly looks like ankle he's come down awkwardly on he's asking them to take
04:46over the boot damian mckenzie he's actually now trying to
04:51basically walk it off out the back there they're on the line you come to the middle
04:58so that's it one swipe
05:01the sharks line out 10 meters inside the all-blacks half it's one by slab it
05:07and moyo again he goes high in the air what a challenging one for the all-blacks to try and
05:12read comes forward as it come forward off the all-blacks no backwards is the call
05:19in fact it has come off the sharks so one goes the way of the all-blacks and just a
05:26chance for them to
05:27settle things down here yeah well they haven't really had any opportunities at this stage to get
05:31their rhythm going they've been pinned deep in their own half there is that strapping going on damian mckenzie's boot
05:37on high sharks tactics are very obvious we want to get that ball up in the air and at the
05:44moment
05:44moyo's kicking game is very very good there's mckenzie comes down there and just awkwardly on that ankle
05:50it's a leg injury it's far enough away first scrub will be fascinating try and do the same for both
05:55teams throughout the game all-blacks will be looking to this area yes please to assert some real
06:01dominance it was a bit wobbly it would be fair to say against the stormers needs to be better
06:07on this loose head side for the all-blacks up against a pretty experienced man
06:12in the number three jersey for the sharks hits in cock 63 test matches for the springbox and who made
06:20his test debut off of the bench against the all-blacks back in 2015 so well served
06:27the sharks tonight in the tight head jersey five
06:34set
06:40stable first up for the all-blacks then pressed into work with way to geordie barrett at first
06:44receiver it's a good picture this one too let's kick the territory the angle inside of the sharks
06:52up as if you feel of see yeah it touches early on for the young man just 18 years of
07:00age the
07:01sharks fullback david's pops one up again contract starson who's full of running i think his debut for
07:08the sharks here against the all-blacks familiar the balls and the stormers
07:20david's again the sharks off for the high one very high indeed at kinks park on the side of the
07:25all-blacks
07:26backwards is the call off of the all-blacks and so the captain luke jacobsson lays it back now ethan
07:32the group could pass away to the left wing side where caleb crumb looks to pump his legs
07:41first chance for the all-blacks to face with the ball just on their side of halfway
07:46derrick little dummy takes the contact
07:50now the kick will come from love this time trying to split them in the back
07:55there oh that's a beautiful excellent kick from ruben love
08:0322 as well they spotted donovan gone the right winger for the sharks jordie barrett picked them out
08:09earlier got the ball in behind them this time equally so did ruben love he's up quite flat not
08:14protecting the backfield him and see ya ya need to work better in a combination because the all-blacks
08:19have now got themselves into the perfect position to launch from line out
08:24almua sends in all is one the football bite now the hooker wraps around the corner clark second
08:30receiver bashing in center field here's darry
08:36all-blacks looking for quick ball they won't get it though big turnover for the sharks
08:42and it's memo who comes up with the turnover the man had been flying his trade in france
08:50and it was the case of the sharks finding nemo we are carrying on so let's play
09:05the all-blacks had numbers there but they just weren't accurate enough to clean about
09:10and once he got in position you can see there there's good size of him and he was unable to
09:16be
09:17moved and extricated from that situation and it was an important penalty for the sharks to
09:22get as well the all-blacks really looking to get into their phase work inside the 22.
09:28five or six had a very good line out the sharks and the united rugby championship just gone
09:34the steals last season the scrub was very good too operating around 96 percent
09:42well the kids don't mind the rain too much they're out to watch
09:46their team second game i'll break these greatest rivalry
09:58let's try and contest but it is one night
10:01but i had it once the captain for the sharks
10:11advantage here through the sharks
10:15and david's pops a little kick over the team
10:17that's all the interesting it's come forward but he'll go back matthew carley was playing a penalty
10:22advantage i think he's penalized josh lord here in the all-blacks yeah got him for lifting a leg in
10:31the
10:31more which i'm not allowed to do so off the back of the penalty they tried something special did the
10:37sharks a little kick in behind very nearly got the bounce of the ball and saying that jordi barrett
10:42was sweeping back he read it 15 defensively quite well yeah let's not let's get here okay
10:51let's see moya with the kick downfield kills off some good meters too
10:55come on holly please guys on holly
11:03there it is there lord on the on slab
11:11there
11:12there goes goes for not strike head on the tank for the sharks
11:34there's a look to more the all-blacks i think the storm has been effectively in game one in
11:39capetown swart feels on contact two bumps off jacobson
11:44well though for bradley david's and the sharks quick hands hadn't
11:49trying to get over the ball as quinn to fire for the all-blacks now starson
11:56david's again bits the cock
12:01there's a weight away again through pepsi put the lazy
12:08test of this all-blacks defense in the opening 12 minutes at kings park david's what about going
12:13short side goes open and again he finds a big man who's repelled down slow but
12:19the ruff is
12:20and mccullies
12:21she goes again remember 16 penalties the all-blacks conceded at dhl stadium
12:29area they talked about in the week wanting to tidy up but there's another
12:34from the englishman
12:37very bankable three for the sharks so they just wanted to get the scoreboard moving considering
12:43they've been down in the zone quite a bit so far in this test but look at that boom
12:49through goes everyone swart not many do that to luke jacobson he's as tough as nails and for him to
12:55dismiss jacobson like that shows the power of the hooker from the sharks
13:01they have been trending towards five-man line outs the sharks and
13:05the all-blacks are defending the line out more quite well at this stage i just wonder whether they consider
13:10getting a peel off the front or the back going this time and don't go for the predictable more
13:20that's one and the sharks looking for the opening points of this game
13:25down the back they go chituka
13:28the ads of butelesic
13:33all-blacks trying to get organized on the fence
13:37will try and crack into the five but they do a good job
13:40what a good job the all-blacks and after being bumped off by edouane swart the all-blacks captain
13:53this is the turnover yeah well that's the toughness i was talking about fluke jacobson
13:58picks himself back up and then when his team needs it
14:01he comes up with a really important play and turning the ball over got his way right through the
14:06middle of the ball and then racked himself around the ball carry and eventually got his hands on the
14:10ball as well excellent defense from tonight's all-black captain luke jacobson
14:34and it's a good scrum for the all-blacks and they've got an advantage too
14:43off goes kyle preston quickly
14:46likes players good offside preston breaks through kyle preston can he hold his feet
14:50sends it down the park players will chase through infinity and an awful
14:55but the sharks get back in the water too and it literally bested the left winger was back there for
15:03them a good heads up play from kyle preston wading his way through the sharks defense yeah he looked
15:13up cole preston and the likes of geordie barrett and caleb clark and mckenzie were keen for him to
15:18take it quickly you see he looked out that way but then he decided you know what they've drifted out
15:22knowing where the threat was going to be and he broke through and an excellent kick kicks off both feet
15:27obviously that was off the left down into the perfect piece of space and man finneaga nupu was
15:35there to wrap up the sharks any chance of counter-attack but since then they've conceded
15:42a penalty we're not quite sure and haven't picked up what that's for
15:54oh it's a shoulder it's just a clumsy one he's hit the body and just part of his shoulder has
16:00made impact
16:01that's gonna be good
16:04in the paper we're letting matthew cully know they fit this during your springbok
16:09very cup winner with the sharks in 2024
16:19short line up for the sharks won by the captain hadn't again
16:32David will send up the box kick.
16:36A lot of field of play here.
16:38Take two by Finianga Norfolk.
16:44Wanting to get on with this quickly.
16:49Just now awkwardly trying to feel the ball.
16:57Perhaps similar to what Damien Mackenzie did.
16:59Just charring that leg as he came down.
17:05I tell you, so far your kick accuracy is excellent.
17:07They are putting it contestable.
17:11Moyo and Davids.
17:14Again, head into the target.
17:17Big Blacks will try and pile through.
17:19Carly's whistle goes and it's a free kick.
17:22To the All Blacks.
17:23Didn't go to five of the call.
17:27Free kick. Free kick.
17:29Nice for him.
17:39Johnny Barrett sends this one very high indeed at Kings Park.
17:43Chasing through as Guintu Paya bats it back on the side of the All Blacks.
17:46All open play.
17:48Fletcher Newell thought about the pass.
17:50And watched to take the ball in instead.
17:54Quick hands for the All Blacks.
17:55Beautiful handling indeed.
17:56Mackenzie away to the right wing side to Bavai.
18:00Trying to cut an angle back.
18:03You can see just how wet it is inside of the 22.
18:06All the rain they've had.
18:08There's the All Blacks.
18:11Through the group.
18:13Up Finianganufu up for Derek.
18:18They've got an advantage here and a penalty the All Blacks.
18:21They can use it down this short side.
18:24Finianganufu for the corner.
18:25He scores.
18:28Opening try for the All Blacks.
18:30Here at Kings Park.
18:33And it's Finianganufu who scores it.
18:35Well really you'd have to say.
18:38The only time the All Blacks have had a genuine try scoring opportunity.
18:43And they maximise it big time.
18:46Looked like the blind side was pretty well stacked with defenders.
18:49But the ability to get the offload away.
18:50I think it was from Josh Lord was it?
18:53Yeah it was.
18:54That's a great offload.
18:55It brought in two defenders.
18:57Finianganufu kept themselves low.
18:58He also knew that momentum with the wet surface was getting him across the line.
19:01And that proved to be the case.
19:04The All Blacks strike first.
19:09First try in the All Blacks jersey.
19:11For a man who scored 17 of them.
19:14For the Hurricanes.
19:16Along with Josh Morby and Super Rugby.
19:20This man had quite a season too.
19:22Now looking to convert the try.
19:25Reuben Love.
19:28Just away.
19:32In fact he has knocked it through.
19:34So.
19:34The try converted.
19:36For the All Blacks.
19:38Some good hands in these conditions.
19:41That's really good awareness.
19:44Quintupaya recognised he needed to go in and play half back equally.
19:48First receiver Josh Lord.
19:50To create the space.
19:52As a first receiver needed to bring those two defenders in.
19:54And then get the offload away.
19:55He did that brilliantly.
19:58Has a third receiver might get the offload away.
20:03Your bestening once.
20:05The start of now.
20:05The start of now.
20:06These ball as the start of now.
20:07Come on.
20:10Lewifel?
20:15zij has first tribute between.
20:17High%, you know, they can't tell him they can't tell him.
20:20Go on.
20:20Three, four, three, three, four.
20:23Put them in, you know, they can't tell him that didn't appear.
20:24No one, three, six, or two, four.
20:28This one, three, six, or three.
20:28Use it!
20:31Nine.
20:34Here's the kick from Preston.
20:37Just beyond the 10-metre line.
20:40Ball is on the side of the Sharks. Now they've lost it forward.
20:48The All-backs are starting.
20:51And a bit of momentum, get some field position, as you say.
20:57Both teams looking to employ the high kick.
21:00And on this occasion, it looks out for the All-Blacks.
21:03They have a scrub for their 10-metre line.
21:13Nice and square, in front of each other.
21:21511 caps for the All-Blacks.
21:2523 here tonight.
21:27174 for the Sharks. 63 of those to Vincent Koch.
21:30Let you guess where the other 103 come from.
21:35And he'll be looking to make his mark later on in this game.
21:405!
21:446!
21:446!
21:50Stable set-piece again for the All-Blacks to work with.
21:53And Barrett, who again sends a long kick downfield.
21:57Real work to do in the backfield for Siyaya, the full-back.
22:01And a bounce.
22:02Sits up for the All-Blacks in Sintixtic.
22:06They're not working out for the young full-back in the Sharks,
22:09as the All-Blacks come on the front foot again through the captain, Jacobson.
22:16And the group coming up very quickly on him with Slava.
22:19And knocked the ball.
22:21Free.
22:21Hupaya, a little kick over the top.
22:23The bounce for McKenzie.
22:26He scores it.
22:30Well, he had to read that, Damien McKenzie.
22:33Tank food and all.
22:34But he slides through the water for the All-Blacks second against the Sharks.
22:39Ah, the accuracy of the kick strategy of the All-Blacks.
22:41First of all, to find the space.
22:42Again, in behind Siyaya.
22:47And then, this created this type of pressure.
22:50He tried to wriggle himself out of it with a miracle.
22:52Not the right option.
22:53And the All-Blacks make him pay for that.
22:55Because when Quintu Paya gets his hands on the ball.
22:58Again, as a first receiver.
23:00Premeditated.
23:01Jordie Barrett was coming through.
23:02McKenzie was there as well.
23:04And it's McKenzie that finishes it.
23:25Same angle.
23:26Ruben loves.
23:27Same result for the All-Blacks.
23:29Converts their second try.
23:31And first on this tour.
23:34Medallia McKenzie.
23:37A really good execution from Quintu Paya.
23:41And you can see, obviously, Siyaya was all over the shot.
23:45Because he was the one getting back.
23:47And oh.
23:47Oh.
23:49Oh, Nero here.
23:50He's lost that.
23:51He has lost that ball.
23:53And Matthew Carley.
23:55Not that he needed the help from the Kings Park crowd.
23:58And he's going to take a look.
24:01Well, you do have to question why that's taken so long.
24:05But anyway.
24:06That's the ball on the pick-up.
24:07Yeah, black 15.
24:11What we do have to make sure that we are getting is fairness.
24:14Regardless of how far the game has progressed since this moment.
24:19But yeah, he hasn't held on to that.
24:20He loses control.
24:22And then the ball is trapped down underneath things.
24:25So he can't be together from there.
24:26But it's already not gone.
24:29In that incident there.
24:30Where he loses control from his hands, yes?
24:32Actually looked like he'd done well.
24:33Mackenzie to hold it into his cheeks.
24:34Yes, agreed.
24:35Happy so.
24:36No try.
24:37Okay, so we have a decision.
24:40The ball is knocked on because the player loses control.
24:44No try.
24:46Knock on is in the field of play.
24:48Scrum.
24:50Sharks ball.
24:51Oh, it is very, very wet inside that.
24:53Sharks 22.
24:55This is the amount of heat from the son of the team before the game.
24:58Mostly things spark.
25:00Really good drainage, but down that corner there.
25:04We have seen all the action.
25:05The try.
25:07To Ephae Nganoufu.
25:08And Damian McKenzie has one ruled out.
25:14well so they survived the Sharks but they're not by any means out of trouble yet the All Black
25:22Scrummers look impressive and this is certainly an area and a position on the field that they
25:27will go harder the Sharks back to test them on their own ball not an easy exit very hard to
25:36kick from here from set piece usually you have to face first which will mean Nick Hatton off the
25:42back or possibly midfield hit up first but first is Scrum and the Sharks are going to get it out
25:54quickly they've got a penalty too though the Sharks and that won't that won't impress
26:05the All Black coaching group because in that zone there when you've got the opposition
26:11turned yes you're going to go hard at their scrum but you want to do it legally just make them
26:16have
26:16to work for their exit not earn a piggyback off the back of the penalty needs to be more accurate
26:23in that zone from the All Blacks
26:25I remember it was 14-7 at half time in Cape Town it's only the last 13 odd minutes where
26:43the All Blacks
26:44powered home with four tries to win that opening game on the Western Cape at the moment here
26:51thing to play until the break it's the lone try for the All Blacks
27:12and it is there for them McKenzie to the line Josh Lord frees a pass away beautifully to Barrett now
27:24Kupaya
27:25and it is there for them McKenzie to the line Josh Lord frees a pass away beautifully to Barrett now
27:25Kupaya
27:25Kupaya just showing the ball holding it up for Lord on the inside here come the All Blacks inside of
27:31the 22 here's DeGroote now Preston short side option for Clark Blacks looking to play with pace in these
27:41difficult conditions still goes to grab they've got a penalty advantage so free swing here for New Zealand
27:49Derry no I thought Jordy bad bird wide pass to the right wing side yeah Vinny under Norfolk as well
27:57to stay on his feet
27:58and wrestle through contact Kali will come back
28:09good field position here for the All Blacks
28:12near or over by the 15
28:1615
28:18the man pin lights for the Sharks offside at the breakdown and the backs offside
28:4056
28:4265
28:46Sam Terry
28:48Bamberg crushing up for the All Blacks
28:51here tonight at Kings Park
28:54as Elmore
28:58sends it in
28:59and they set the drive here, the All Blacks
29:05it's a little tap from Preston
29:07the hooker, and away he goes
29:09sends it into the back line, Barrett
29:11away to the right wing side, ball
29:13tracking backwards for Finiaga
29:15now the inside pass, McKenzie
29:17this time Damien McKenzie
29:23now he slides in this time
29:25Damien McKenzie, there'll be no doubt
29:27about the fact he scored this
29:29but again
29:31excellent work and vision from
29:33Geordie Barrett, and then the footwork
29:35and the poise of
29:37Sheher Finiaga Nukle
29:39to make sure he found McKenzie, so Barrett
29:41spots the space, an isolated defender
29:43out there, check this out, little pivot
29:45jump step bang, back on the inside
29:48brought in the last defender
29:50Tiaia, and then back on the inside
29:52McKenzie hit it at pace
29:53the way that
29:54Finiaga Nukle laid it up into space
29:57was perfect, and McKenzie finished
29:59they possibly all have a look to see
30:01just to make sure that he got that down
30:03without finding the rest of his body
30:05into touch
30:16the shot clock is winding down
30:18they are going to have a look at this
30:21double check with
30:22Mike Adamson
30:24the TMO
30:27Matt, TMO check
30:30TMO check
30:35well, well, well, another look
30:37upstairs
30:39on the tour
30:40let's take a look here
30:46get it down just in time
30:48that is going to
30:50initially when the ball goes down
30:52it bumps off the ground
30:53into the air
30:54we're just looking to see if his feet
30:56are in touch
30:57before the ball gets grounded
30:59so what happens is that he hits the ground here
31:01then the ball comes off the ground
31:04and then he gets it down now
31:05and he might, possibly that knee might be
31:08but that's the corner post
31:09which is
31:10not considered to be out
31:13so I think corner post
31:14the knees hit that
31:15and then the ball's gone down
31:16simultaneously
31:22well, it's the popular corner here in Durban
31:24the All Blacks need to surfboard
31:25I don't know where it is
31:27as he scored McKenzie
31:31yeah, yeah
31:34we've got our penalty to go back for over there
31:40okay, Matt, I have a decision
31:41yeah, go ahead, Mike
31:43I do not have conclusive evidence
31:45to say that the ball is not being grounded
31:47before the feet are in touch
31:48there's so much splash
31:49from the ground
31:51so stay with your on-field decision
31:53okay, so it's not clear and obvious
31:55that the player is in touch
31:56before the ball is grounded
31:58the on-field decision was a try
31:59so the try will remain
32:02oh, too much water even for the TMO
32:04to look through
32:06shake it hit from Damien McKenzie
32:08a rise smile too
32:09he does have
32:11his try this time
32:15now the shot clock will reset
32:16for Ruben Love
32:17I think they've got the right decision there
32:19it was really near on impossible to tell whether or not
32:23when they're looking at touch
32:25if that ball was on the ground or not
32:26because of the spray
32:40well, he's kept three
32:41this one will count though
32:42another beautiful kick from Ruben Love
32:45convinced the try to Damien McKenzie
32:48and this is the beauty of having
32:51three players who can slot into first receiver
32:54Geordie Barrett, excellent kick across
32:57and the vision and the read of Damien McKenzie
33:00to back up and support on Fihi Finianganufu
33:03for the All Blacks second
33:07still going backwards
33:08or has it gone forwards
33:09it has too
33:10so a knock-on advantage here for the All Blacks
33:15yeah, the advantage is over
33:18almost had his kick charged down
33:20this one
33:21hanging over the halfway line
33:23Glenanganufu did a good job
33:24to come through defensively
33:25now the All Blacks will try
33:27the price of counter-run pressure
33:28Davids has it though
33:30and it's with the tight head
33:32cough
33:33let him move, let him move
33:34don't trap him
33:36Sharks ball
33:37leave it
33:38use it
33:39not that I can see
33:43no Davids
33:43oh Skywood again
33:45in Durban
33:46this time it's Love who comes forward
33:48taking in the tackle of Vesta
33:50the All Blacks go down the short side
33:53as Barrett
33:53puts a little kick
33:56on the left wing side
33:57for the Sharks
33:58away to the fullback
33:59Zikitello Siyaya
34:00off of his right foot
34:02hanging very high
34:03great deal of distance
34:05and it's batted back
34:06by Clark
34:07into the arms of Preston
34:08now McKenzie
34:09from inside his own half
34:10looking for a 50-22
34:13sits down in the bog of water
34:16inside of the Sharks
34:17red zone
34:18as Boyo
34:21has to go as long as he can
34:23but the ball is still in play
34:24for the All Blacks
34:24in love
34:27Clark
34:28puts a little kick over
34:29to the left wing side

35:13one smart scenes in odds take back on the side of the all-grads and Derry's
35:18done a brilliant job at line outside his parent again this low kick along the
35:24ground inside of the 22 he's got it in Don the Sharks right winger tracks back
35:30carry to five minutes that you don't like
35:37what's the TT trying to come in pressure in the tackle use it
35:44it is out David's again the box kick
35:50he's been in the back he came through Harden tries to hold on to it it's a bar of soap
35:56tonight here at Kings Park yeah well as expected in these conditions the rain Durbin's experience
36:07in the last two days and you can clearly see the effect that's had these images are showing
36:12that there's so much surface water in this game which makes the ball slippery that kicking
36:17strategy is key and we've seen a lot of kicking but it's just going to be the nature of the
36:24game
36:25this evening because of those conditions at the moment have to say the all-blacks find in the
36:31grass quite well and winning that territory battle but equally the Sharks kicking strategy in the air
36:37and the competing for it is very good as well
36:45looks like Damian McKenzie has to come
36:49to that ankle issue
36:50Aone Naroa is on for the all-blacks Davids sends it away to Murray Costa
37:00the all-blacks and they're going to be matched as well here the Sharks the back check Matt Kali
37:21but there's kicking has been immaculate so far in this game he was going for
37:25the maximum there Ruben Love didn't quite get the execution right
37:34obviously change with McKenzie off the field Naroa has actually taken up position at fullback
37:45do have options across the back line for players to switch around but at this stage it's Naroa that's
37:51going to play fullback
38:01the
38:02the
38:03the
38:14the
38:16the
38:16the
38:17the
38:45the
38:47the
38:47the box attack coach has also done sharks colors they get a chance now
38:52through jorenzo julius he's so aggressive with ball in hand
39:00david's looks away again for let him out
39:07use it enough enjoy the early territory the sharks it's all being the all-blacks
39:15this first half again though the ball is awkward on the floor at kings park and david's
39:21will try and turn around the all-blacks in the backfield in morning narua is there
39:28and he just settles things down
39:32ball is out for a sharks a line-up 14 inside the new zealand half
39:40and what a comeback for a morning narua first appearance for the all-blacks since he broke
39:45his rib and punctured his lung against the spring box at eden park last year he scored the opening
39:53try in that match it's so good to see him everything he's been through
39:58and turning out for the all-blacks damien mckenzie off the path
40:06with that ankle issue we think so swart sends in and is taken by ral
40:13of the all-blacks damien mckenzie off the ball julius again torrenzo julius out of the famous paul
40:19ruiz gymnasium school in stellenbosch signed by the sharks straight out of school a few years back
40:25ball is out there he is again involved in the action the center
40:31no let go
40:36that comes again for the spring block veteran vincent cock
40:40center of the park 12 meters inside of the all-blacks half is moyo
40:44has to go to the air again and saw the all-black players coming through
40:53that's good defense from the all-blacks they're trying to get their phase game going the sharks but
40:59at the moment they're just getting met with resilience not being able to get the game line nor quick ball
41:05they're just 20 years of age last month
41:10and it's his debut for the box against wales in kingland's park last month too where they won
41:1743 nil the spring box
41:22look what happened here to fitz and pop oh there it is it's luke jacobson came and he was walling
41:29the tight
41:34head
41:34a wee bit worse for where he's on his feet
41:42and of course it's a quick turnaround for the all-blacks here at kings park tonight then it's off to
41:48the high
41:48belt
41:50to play the balls at lockers versfeld
41:54two distant kitchen is settling in for that first test against the spring box at ellis park
42:02and he's just managed to find a way past argentina trying to get up for it was long the sharks
42:09have it
42:10and now they get a chance to run it back through chituka
42:15it's one against the all-blacks as moyo
42:19harrett tried to come through and charge it down there morning narua looks interested
42:23batted back by donovan dondo look at the arms of the young pullbacks ikitelos tiyaya
42:28holding the player up he might not get this back and he won't that's good defense by the all-blacks
42:36yeah it certainly was caleb clark and then he got supported by quinn topire recognized
42:44that tiyaya was high and didn't have any support this is the line-out being picked off
42:51the all-blacks
42:52number eight nick hatton managed to ban it away really interesting seeing in this game the amount
42:56of times that in the air players are going up and getting ahead of the ball and just backing it
43:00back
43:01onto their own into their own direction seems to be a tactic that both teams are employing
43:08just trying to pick up the crumbs
43:12with the supporting players coming through
43:19this is an area that certainly improved from the game against the stormers angling for another
43:31penalty they'll get it here the all-blacks has satiti now barrett has a free crack from outside of the
43:3822
43:49my room and JJ from the outside
43:54So few seconds remaining
43:59statements scrum there from the all-blacks
44:02they had had a real dig and this time they did it accurately won the penalty
44:22so one last crack for the all blacks in this first half at king's park
44:30first game here against the sharks since 1992 and it goes this time lord takes it
44:4119 92 game rock box hit 23 points
44:49now preston sends it away first receiver is the tt a little bit deeper this time the all blacks
44:55it goes in behind as drenzo julius tried to hack it through still there for tupiah bag wide pass to
45:02there he fit out the north we didn't know too much about it but that is half time
