All Blacks Secure 11th Consecutive Bledisloe Win Over Wallabies in Perth

The Wallabies faced a tough defeat against the All Blacks in Perth, losing 28-14 and extending their losing streak to 11 consecutive Bledisloe Cup matches since 2020. Despite a hopeful start and strong attacking plays, errors, penalties, and ill-discipline, including key yellow cards, hampered Australia's efforts in a wet and challenging game. This match marked the final Test for James Slipper, Australia's most capped player, who ended his career with a disappointing loss. Wallabies captain Harry Wilson expressed frustration, emphasizing the team's desire to win rather than just be competitive, acknowledging progress but accepting that they fell short against New Zealand. The All Blacks, having secured the Bledisloe Cup earlier, can still clinch the Rugby Championship title depending on other match outcomes. Both teams entered the match with motivation, but New Zealand's consistent dominance and tactical edge prevailed once again, maintaining a 23-year hold on the Bledisloe Cup.
