A late change for the All Blacks ahead of tonight's Bledisloe bash against the Wallabies

This evening's commentator on Newstalk ZB, Gold Sport and iHeart Radio, Elliott Smith, has the latest.



To the NPC... where Wellington lead Bay of Plenty 25-15 in the capital, heading into the last 10 minutes .

Canterbury held Counties Manukau scoreless in the first half in Christchurch... then the Steelers returned the favour, running in four unanswered second-half converted tries... Canterbury going from 36-nil up to only winning 36-28.

Northland eased past visiting North Harbour 47-24.

Also in Whangarei, in the FPC, the Waikato women are showing Northland no mercy... Waikato led the Kauri 74-nil ... 10 to go.

And there was another record scoreline in the second-tier Heartland Championship today as Thames Valley beat Buller 84-14 in Whangamata.

The 70-point winning margin beats the old record, which was only set last week when two different teams won by 45 points.
