All Blacks punish Ireland in dominant Eden Park win

Nations Championship round threeNew Zealand (28) 40Tries: Tuipulotu, Savea, Jordan, Aumua, McKenzie, Lienert-Brown Cons: Love 5Ireland (7) 21Tries: Conan, McCarthy, Keenan Cons: Prendergast 3 Ruthless New Zealand scored six tries to overwhelm Ireland and preserve their 32-year unbeaten run at Eden Park in a largely one-sided Nations Championship contest.Buoyed by victories over France and Italy, the All Blacks punished a litany of first-half Irish errors as Patrick Tuipulotu, Ardie Savea, Will Jordan and Asafo Aumua all crossed to secure the bonus point. Ireland's solitary first-half score from Jack Conan came after Luke Jacobson was yellow carded for a dangerous clearout on Josh van der Flier, with the New Zealand flanker avoiding a red card following an off-field review. Irish tries from Joe McCarthy and Hugo Keenan either side of the outstanding Damian McKenzie's score boosted the visitors' hopes of a losing and try bonus. However, Anton Lienert-Brown's late score wrapped up an emphatic win for the three-time world champions, who stretched their undefeated Eden Park sequence to 53 Tests.Having beaten Australia and Japan in their first two games, Ireland will leave Auckland empty-handed after their fourth successive loss to New Zealand and must wait until November to atone for a sloppy first-half performance. New Zealand, meanwhile, will approach next month's four-Test series against South Africa with confidence after taking a maximum 15 points from their three home Nations Championship fixtures.More to follow.
