      1/2 time: AUS 31-23

      Gillbard 19/20 (95%)
      Roberts 12/16 (75%)

      Levi 20/20(100%)
      Matuku 3/3 (100%)
      Smith 0/0

      The Aussies put the foot down in that Q, winning it 19-12. 36 attempts to 23 so far. The turnovers are really mounting up on NZ, 16 compared to Aust 9.

        3/4 time: AUS 45-38

        Gillbard 29/31 (94%)
        Roberts 16/21 (76%)

        Levi 32/33 (97%)
        Matuku 6/6 (100%)

        The kiwis challenged strongly in the 3rd Q, at one stage narrowing the gap to just 3 before Australia settled. Who’s going to finish the strongest?

          Full time: AUS 63-49

          Well, Australia finished clearly the strongest to win by 14. But the Net Blacks improved greatly from game 1 and at times really challenged the Kelpies. Their problem has been maintaining that form for 60 minutes.

          POTM: Brodie Roberts

            This was a great game, very tight at times. Good to see Brodie Roberts recover from a shaky start.

              Game 3:

              1/4 time: AUS 17-15

              Levi 15/16 (94%)
              Smith 0/1 (0%)

              Gillbard 14/14 (100%)
              Roberts 3/3 (100%)

              Australia started quickly, up 9-4 early on, but the kiwis fought their way back, drawing level 13-13 at one stage. This is a good contest.

                1/2 time: AUS 34-30

                Levi 28/29 (97%)
                Matuku 0/0

                Gillbard 26/26 (100%)
                Lee 0/0

                Same score as Q1 (17-15). NZ going for the long ball into Levi but the Aus defence has been able to pick a few off. Aus working well in attack, again Roberts one of the stars.

                  Just into the last quarter and the Kelpies have a 53-43 lead. Can the Net Blacks fight back from here?

                    Great game. This Kelpies outfit is so impressive.

                      Full time: AUS 68-54

                      As in the previous two tests, the Aussie Kelpies pulled away in the last Q. They win the series 3-0 but NZ showed lots of fight along the way.

                      For the Net Blacks, they shot at 90% (Levi 47/48), and Australia shot at 92% (Gilbard 36/36).
