The Wallabies have been swept in the Bledisloe Cup, with the All Blacks charging away to a 37-20 victory in Yokohama.
While the final margin was 17, it could have been bigger had Israel Folau not scored a consolation try in the 75th minute of action.
The Wallabies shot themselves in the foot time and time again with mistakes aplenty throughout the course of the contest, but the All Blacks were a class above again as Beauden Barrett led the way with a try and a number of goals.
When Sefa Naivalu scored just before halftime, the Wallabies seemed to have a chance of pulling off an upset, but it didn’t come to be in the end as the All Blacks skipped away, aided in the final quarter of an hour after Tolu Latu was sent to the sin bin.
You’re free to rate players as you like with one being the lowest and ten being the highest – or toss an NA on any player not worth rating – but if you’re looking for a bit more detail than that, our handy little guide might help you make your judgments…
1. Had he not played, the team would have been better off. Negatively affected the performance of the side. May God have mercy on his soul.
2. Anonymous. Was he even there?
3. Did some things that you expect a player to be able to do, but did a whole bunch of other things that sucked.
4. Was passable in patches, but not up to standard in a squad of such depth.
5. Performed his role without anything really noticeable happening.
6. Good.
7. Pretty good, actually.
8. Very good.
9. Excellent.
10. Might as well have been John Eales.
