Ma'a Nonu scored two tries to lead New Zealand to a 41-13 victory over Australia at Eden Park, ensuring that the All Blacks retain the Bledisloe Cup for a 13th year.
Dane Coles, Conrad Smith and a penalty try also helped the home side keep the score moving, before Israel Folau added a late consolation for the Wallabies.
The match also saw New Zealand captain Richie McCaw overtake Brian O'Driscoll as the world's most-capped international player, making his 142nd appearance for the nation.
Read how all the action unfolded below.
Good morning! It's a little over half an hour until New Zealand try to make amends for their loss to Australia last weekend, while also hoping to extend their 12-year hold on the Bledisloe Cup. Let's start with a reminder of the team news.
NEW ZEALAND STARTING XV: Ben Smith, Milner-Skudder, Conrad Smith, Nonu, Savea, Carter, Aaron Smith, Woodcock, Coles, Franks, Retallick, Whitelock, Vito, McCaw, Read
AUSTRALIA STARTING XV: Folau, Ashley-Cooper, Kuridrani, Toomua, Speight, Cooper, White, Sio, Moore, Kepu, Horwill, Skelton, Fardy, Hooper, Palu
New Zealand captain Richie McCaw will win his 142nd Test cap for the All Blacks this morning, which takes him past Brian O'Driscoll's total, making him the most-capped international of all time. There are three changes to the side that lost in Sydney last week, with Ma'a Nonu preferred to Sonny Bill Williams, while Sam Whitelock and Victor Vito come into the second row in place of Luke Romano and Jerom Kaino.
There are six changes for Australia. Nic White came off the bench late against New Zealand last week, and he proved the difference, scoring a converted try and penalty to put Australia ahead with just a few minutes remaining, earning himself a spot in the starting lineup. Quade Cooper also comes in, along with Wycliff Palu at number eight, Matt Toomua ahead of Matt Giteau, Henry Speight on the wing, and Will Skelton in for Dean Mumm in the second row.
Ahead of today's match, New Zealand coach Steve Hansen told reporters: "While everyone is saying we're under pressure, I think Australia now have put themselves in a place where people have high expectations of them. With that comes pressure, too. It's one of those great Test matches. We're going to find out who has the steel and who hasn't."
Meanwhile, Australia's Michael Cheika said at his press conference: "We're inexperienced, the Australian coaching staff and they've got a much better record than we have around wins. But I back my guts and I don't fear a failure. I don't worry about that. I just do my best. The team does its best and the cards fall where they may. I'm not obsessed by all that."
Usually, the Bledisloe Cup is decided annually in a best-of-three series, with the two meetings between the sides in the Rugby Championship followed by a third meeting. As the Rugby Championship was cut in half this year to give the teams longer to prepare for the World Cup, the All Blacks and the Wallabies are only facing each other twice this year, but Australia will still need to win this morning to win the trophy back for the first time since 2002.
It will be a tough ask for Australia to beat New Zealand in front of their own fans though. The World Cup holders are unbeaten in their last 33 matches at Eden Park, and have not been beaten by the same side in two consecutive meetings since facing South Africa in the tri-nations in 2009.
This is what the teams are playing for today. The Bledisloe Cup has been awarded since 1931, when Lord Bledisloe, the then-Governor General of New Zealand, donated the cup. Size-wise, it's the biggest trophy in world rugby:
This is likely to be the last time that Richie McCaw and Dan Carter play in the shirt on New Zealand in their home country. McCaw is expected to retire after the World Cup, while Carter is joining Racing Metro in France, so won't be available for international selection once he links up with the club.
The players have just made their way out of the tunnel ready for kickoff. There are a few pre-match formalities before proceedings can get under way, including the national anthems and the Haka.
Nick Afoa is singing the New Zealand national anthem. Although a full-time singer now, Afoa was a promising New Zealand rugby prospect, helping the team win the Under-19s world cup in 2004, before a knee injury forced him to retire.
The anthems are done and the Haka has been performed, so the sides line up. Welsh referee Nigel Owens is in charge of today's match.
KICKOFF! Dan Carter kicks the match off for New Zealand.
There's an injury concern for New Zealand less than 30 seconds in as an awkward landing as left Brodie Retallick wincing. He eventually gets back to his feet, although is clearly still in pain. Australia have a scrum following a forward pass.
The visitors have the first penalty of the game as New Zealand knock on in the scrum, and they boot it down field for a lineout at the 22. The Wallabies are certainly piling on the pressure early in Eden Park.
A long kick forward almost finds Nic White, but Ben Smith is there to make sure the ball goes into touch. Quade Cooper tries to get involved for the first time, but he mis-times a pass out wide to Ashley-Cooper, and the ball goes out again.
Israel Folau picks it up out wide and tries to run through a couple of New Zealand players, but he's held up. He gets the ball off to White, but a mistake from New Zealand gives the visitors a penalty.
PENALTY! New Zealand 0-3 Australia (Quade Cooper)
Australia go for the posts to open the scoring, and the New Zealand-born Quade Cooper curls it in from out wide. The territory has been all Australia so far, so it's a deserving lead, but they will be a little disappointed not to have got the try.
New Zealand really haven't had a prolonged spell with the ball yet, and they lose possession again as Folau gets the better of Ben Smith in the air to win it back from a Carter kick. It's excellent control from Folau to get the ball straight back for the Wallabies.
The All Blacks are awarded their first scrum of the match, and they manage to convert it into a penalty as Australia collapse the scrum. It's too far out for the home side to go for the posts, but Carter does kick it to the 22 to get New Zealand into their strongest attacking position so far in this contest.
Kieran Read makes sure that New Zealand keep possession from the lineout with an excellent take in the air. Retallick and McCaw build pressure as they try to power through the Australia line, but they lose patience and go for a kick, which Folau takes again. The Australia full-back has made an impressive start to the game.
PENALTY! New Zealand 3-3 Australia (Dan Carter)
Dan Carter lines up his first kick of the night as Australia give away a penalty, and it's accurate from the veteran fly-half, leveling the scores.
Folau is on the charge again, making a couple of ferocious tackles to win the ball back for Australia. He weaves around to close in on the try line, with Fardy and Skelton also getting touches, but the home side hold strong. Cooper passes it out to the right as the Wallabies look to break through, but the New Zealand defence is good.
Toomua and Speight look to slip down the left flank, but the ball is forced out for an Australia lineout, giving New Zealand a moment to reorganise their line. The home side force a turnover though, allowing Dane Coles to break down the other end.
TRY! New Zealand 8-3 Australia (Dane Coles)
After Whitelock forces the turnover, Carter runs it out before passing it inside the Coles, who sprinted from the half-way line to add the first try of the match. It was a sensational run from the hooker.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 10-3 Australia (Dan Carter)
It's a tight angle for Carter, but he makes it to add the extra two points for the hosts. Australia were dominant early on, but they've let New Zealand back into the match, and now find themselves behind.
The mistakes are starting to creep in for Australia now as McCaw manages to quickly get the All Blacks back into Wallabies territory, but a handling error hands the visitors a scrum just outside their own 22.
REPLACEMENT! Australia are forced to make an early change as Michael Hooper appears to have picked up a head injury so is going off for a concussion test. David Pocock takes his place.
Nigel Owens has to separate the two sides as Australia are unhappy with a challenge from Ma'a Nonu, with Pocock reacting angrily after the All Black appears to land knee first on Stephen Moore. The referee calls the captains over after calming the two teams down, instructing them to "have a word" with their teams.
In the midst of all that, New Zealand have a penalty for the initial challenge by Pocock.
PENALTY! New Zealand 13-3 Australia (Dan Carter)
Dan Carter makes it three from three in this match, booting the ball straight through the middle to put the hosts 10 points up.
PENALTY! New Zealand 13-6 Australia (Quade Cooper)
It doesn't take Australia long to force a penalty down the other end as Conrad Smith goes in late for a tackle on Cooper. It's not an easy kick for the Australia fly-half, as it's out wide and a long way out, but he strikes it beautifully to cut the gap to seven points. Meanwhile, Michael Hooper is back on the bench following his concussion test, so it looks like he might be coming back on.
MISSED PENALTY! Dan Carter has his first miss of the night as a knock out just inside Australia territory gives the fly-half another sight at the posts. He's 49-metres out though, and the kick comes up short of the posts.
New Zealand get possession back straight away, with Savea, Aaron Smith and Ben Smith all trying to power their way through the middle. Conrad Smith chips it over the top, but Savea can't quite chase it down.
Adam Ashley-Cooper tries to sprint away down the left, but a tackle by Coles forces the turnover for New Zealand. The visitors have a lineout inside New Zealand territory though.
New Zealand have a scrum, which Australia are penalised for collapsing for the second time in this match. Carter takes the kick, securing a lineout inside in the 22 to give the All Blacks a chance to extend their lead further on the cusp of half time.
MISSED DROP GOAL! Carter goes for the posts again with a drop goal attempt, but his low delivery is just to the left of the uprights.
HALF TIME: New Zealand 13-6 Australia
So, New Zealand survive the early pressure from Australia before a Dane Coles try puts them ahead as they attempt to retain the Bledisoe Cup for a 13th straight year. The All Blacks haven't lost when leading at Eden Park since 1971, so it will be a big ask for Australia to turn this around after the break.
Victor Vito, Sam Whitelock and Richie McCaw have all been superb in the middle so far for New Zealand, while the kicking game, led by Dan Carter, has been used effectively too. Israel Folau has been superb for Australia, but Quade Cooper has given the ball away a couple of times, while Nic White hasn't been able to find as much space as he did in Sydney last week.
The players are starting to make their way back out for the start of the second half.
RESTART! Quade Cooper gets the second half underway.
Milner-Skudder hauls in the kickoff before Read and Woodcock pass the ball around the back. It's kicked forward towards Cooper, but the fly-half loses his footing, much to the delight of the home crowd, giving away a lineout.
Ben Smith chips the ball forward looking to get the ball forward for Vito, but White forces himself in front to see the ball into touch. There's a worry for the visitors though as captain Stephen Moore appeared to clash heads with McCaw in the build up, and needs a minute or two to compose himself before he's alright to carry on.
Carter passes the ball out wide to Coles, but Australia are ready for his pace this time and smoother his run down the wing. New Zealand have enjoyed the majority of the possession since the restart though, keeping Australia on the back foot.
PENALTY TRY! New Zealand 18-6 Australia
YELLOW CARD! Quade Cooper Cooper goes in high on Aaron Smith, who picks up the ball following a quick burst forward from Milner-Skudder. Smith would definitely have been over between the posts if it hadn't been for Cooper's tackle, so the referee awards the penalty try and sends the fly-half to the sin bin for 10 minutes. It's a silly error by Cooper, and a costly one for his team.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 20-6 Australia (Dan Carter)
Dan Carter makes no mistake with a simple conversion in line with the posts to give New Zealand a 14-point advantage.
TRY! New Zealand 25-6 Australia (Ma'a Nonu)
New Zealand are in complete control at the moment, and they make the most of Cooper's absence to string together a run of quick passes through the middle. Coles finds Ben Smith, who passes it on to Nonu, leaving the centre to sprint for the line before diving over for New Zealand's third try to the match. It's impressive stuff from the hosts.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 27-6 Australia (Dan Carter)
Carter adds the extra before New Zealand are soon on the attack again. The force a lineout on the 22, quickly getting the ball to Nonu again, but this time he's held up just short of the line. This is a really one-sided encounter at the moment.
TRY! New Zealand 32-6 Australia (Conrad Smith)
Oh wow, New Zealand are really making Australia pay for last week's win and having a player in the sin bin as they run the ball over again. After Nonu is held up, the manages to get the ball to Conrad Smith, and with Cooper still in the sin bin, there's no-one there to stop him casually strolling over.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 34-6 Australia (Dan Carter)
Carter continues his excellent performance with the boots, adding the conversion again. Cooper's absence while he's been in the sin bin has really take it's toll for Australia, and they've still got a couple of minutes before he can come back on. The way New Zealand are moving the ball around at the moment, it wouldn't be a surprise if they add another try before the Wallabies are back to 15.
In fact, Australia do hold on, but it's not Quade Cooper coming back on. As his 10-minute enforced absence expires, the visitors make a change, sending Kurtley Beale on in his place.
Australia are in trouble again as Conrad Smith tries to break through for the hosts, only to find himself tackled by Toomua, despite not carrying the ball. The referee looks back at the incident, but decides not to go for the yellow card again, giving the centre a warning instead. The penalty allows New Zealand to move inside the 22 again though.
Aaron Smith tries to kick it forward, but Ashley-Cooper is there to win is back for Australia. His pass to Toomua is forward though, so New Zealand will have the scrum just a few metres out.
Aaron Smith gets it again from the scrum, passing to Carter, who had space ahead of him. However, Beale lands a stunning tackle to knock it straight out of the fly-half's arms, preventing him from scoring what would have been a simple try.
TRY! New Zealand 39-6 Australia (Ma'a Nonu)
A superb move from Dan Carter allows him to pass the ball to Nonu, who slips through the hands of Nic White to leap over for his second try to the night.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 41-6 Australia (Dan Carter)
There have been rolling replacements throughout the second half, but the crowd acknowledges one change above all other as Richie McCaw heads off for what is expected to be the final time in front of the All Blacks fans. The captain receives a standing ovation from the Eden Park crowd on his 142nd appearances for the side.
Australia make a rare move into New Zealand territory in this second half, as New Zealand are penalised for not rolling away in the tackle, leaving White to kick it to the home side's 22. Anything that Australia can do inside the last 10 minutes will surely be mere consolation, but they will be keen to avoid being kept off the scoreboard throughout the entire second half.
Kane Douglas takes it down from the lineout, before Australia try to drive the ball across the line, earning a penalty as New Zealand collapse the maul.
Toomua kicks is cross-field towards Beale from a scrum, but there was an infringement, so Nigel Owens calls it back for another Australia lineout.
New Zealand force the turnover, getting the ball Retallick and Cane, who sprint towards the Australia territory. However, White makes an excellent tackle to stop the move, bringing down Fekitoa to get the ball back for the Wallabies.
TRY! New Zealand 41-11 Australia (Israel Folau)
Israel Folau has probably been the best player in an Australia shirt this morning, and he caps his performance with an excellent try, intercepting an All Blacks kick to sprint from inside his own half, beating Slade down the wing to leap over in space, scoring Australia's first try of the night. He's been just unstoppable against the high ball throughout this match.
CONVERSION! New Zealand 41-13 Australia (Nic White)
White adds the extras to make the scoreline a little more respectable for the visitors but they're already having to defend again as Kaino and Nonu apply the pressure for New Zealand, with the latter looking to complete his hat-trick.
Australia have the ball as the full-time hooter sounds. They clearly want to keep the ball alive to add another try with the final move of the match, with Giteau moving it around at the back, but Douglas loses it on the wing.
FULL TIME: New Zealand 41-13 Australia
It's an emphatic victory for New Zealand as they retain the Bledisloe Cup with a one-sided victory over arch-rivals Australia. Once New Zealand hit their stride midway through the first half, the Wallabies hardly saw the ball, while Quade Cooper's sin-binning ending any chance they had of launching a comeback in the second half.
Ma'a Nonu will be delighted with his two tries for the All Blacks, while Dan Carter continued to look in fine form with the boot. If New Zealand play that well at the World Cup next month, it's hard to see anyone taking the Webb Ellis Cup from them.
That's all from this match, but if you want more rugby, we'll have live coverage of the World Cup warmup match between Ireland and Scotland later today. Until then, thanks for joining me this morning. Goodbye.
