72mins: WALLAROOS TRY - NGAHA: Australia with a rare chance to attack, as they put it through the phases, working their way towards the try line through their forwards. Pressure mounting, Wallaroos playing with the advantage, they pop it to Ngaha and she's over for the try!
70mins: BLACK FERNS TRY - WINIATA: New Zealand disrupt the Australian lineout again and get the ball back. They shift it wide right and they have a huge overlap, Winiata gets the final pass and it's an easy run in to score the try.

HALFTIME: BLACK FERNS 19 - 10 WALLAROOS
40mins: WALLAROOS TRY - PATU: Australia get up to claim the lineout ball and set the drive.

Similar to an earlier one scored by New Zealand.
40mins: Murphy does well to clean up a good kick from Cocksedge before bumping off Blackwell! What a collission! Pomare makes a break before putting the kick through and Australia set the drive from the lineout win and they get the penalty.
38mins: Itunu is getting some medical attention after the scrum went straight to deck. She's going to have to be stretchered off. Very sad to see. She opened the scoring for New Zealand tonight. Bit of good news, she's managed to make her own way to the medi-cab. Encouraging signs.
36mins: Australia struggling to find space before Lafai makes another good run up the middle from the breakdown. It's opening up now for the visitors as Hamilton goes through! She can't link up with her support and they cough it up.

26mins: New Zealand find space out wide on the right wing but Elder just can't quite hold on to it. Wallaroos put the ball in for the scrum and are absolutely DEMOLISHED by New Zealand and concede the penalty.
23mins: BLACK FERNS TRY - BLACKWELL: Australia penalised once more, this time at the maul as NZ marched them back. NZ win another lineout have are playing with the advantage, three and counting, they pop it short to Blackwell and she crashes over for the try!
20mins: New Zealand look to try a set piece move but Waaka is well covered before O'Neill is penalised for hands in the ruck and the Black Ferns will have the lineout just outside the Australian's 22m.
18mins: Australia looking to play their way out of their own 22m and are finding success. NZ counter-rucking well however and force the knock on for a scrum.
16mins: WALLAROOS TRY - POMARE: Savage goes high in the tackle and concedes the penalty. Australia with their most promising passage of play. Trehern pops it into the corner for a lineout. They win the ball and look to drive their way over before breaking away through Pomare and she spins out of the tackle for the try!
14mins: Australia turn the ball over as Trehern looks to get the ball away but instead it comes for New Zealand and they clear down field. Black Ferns dominating the contact.
12mins: BLACK FERNS TRY - LOVE: Australia cough it up with New Zealand's rush defence forcing the error and Saili shows some good footwork before they're awarded the penalty and they tap! They pop it to Love, she gets good support behind her and she crashes over for the try.

5mins: BLACK FERNS TRY - ITUNU: Savage makes a great run, beating a number of Wallaroos, before linking up with Smith on her outside. Waaka has a crack and goes close. Itunu looks to crash her way over and it's given! Looked like double movement, but TMO says try.
3mins: New Zealand pinning Australia well within their 22m with their kicking game, setting up a lineout on their 10m. The Black Ferns dominated the set piece last week.
1mins: Australia go short with the kick-off but NZ do well to meet the ball and claim possession before Demant kicks ahead.

5:00pm: Te Kura Ngata-Aerengamate leading the pre-match challenge. Intensity growing! Let's go ladies!

Pre-match banter: Black Ferns name unchanged squad for second Wallaroos test
The Black Ferns have named an unchanged squad to face the Wallaroos in the second Laurie O'Reilly Memorial Trophy test at Eden Park.
Coach Glenn Moore will use the same squad that won the first match in Sydney 31-11 and they hope for an improved performance in Auckland.
"This week, I'm expecting everyone will improve even more and I'm looking forward to seeing what the team can deliver," he said.
"We've obviously spent the week reviewing our performance and identifying where we need to fine tune.
"In Sydney, we adjusted our gameplan when Australia started shutting down our outside backs. Our forwards really stepped up and helped us get the points.
"It showed we have the ability to be nimble, but we’ve talked about the fact we created opportunities and didn’t always finish them."
Barnstorming prop Aldora Itunu is in doubt and has been bracketed, due to a cut on her leg, sustained during the match last Saturday.
If she is ruled out, Leilani Perese will come into the starting side, with Aleisha Nelson promoted onto the bench.
Moore said Itunu had progressed well this week and is expected to retain the propping duties.
Itunu scored one of New Zealand's five tries against Australia last week, with captain Fiao'o Faamausili securing a hat-trick, while Kendra Cocksedge also dotted down.
Moore said the team had loved being in Auckland, which is home for many of the players, and were excited about the chance to play in front of a big crowd at Eden Park.
"Family is very, very important to the Black Ferns. We always have a sense of responsibility that when we go out there, we're representing our country and families.
"The desire to really perform at Eden Park is huge for us. We've been looking forward to this home match for a long time and hope everyone comes early to see first-hand the exciting kind of rugby these two teams will play."
