All Blacks comfortably beat Italy in year's final test

All Blacks vs Italy live stream Only time will tell if belting the 14th ranked side in the world will be enough to quell the All Blacks doubters. 

Regardless, All Blacks coach Steve Hansen will have enjoyed parts of his team's 66-3 romp against Italy at Rome's Stadio Olimpico on Sunday morning (NZT). 

That should include hooker Dane Coles' performance in just his second test start of the year, and no doubt Hansen and his assistants will feel vindicated by picking Jordie Barrett on the right wing after he scored four tries, the most by an All Black against Italy in a match.  Italy vs ABs Rugby streaming
