New Zealand 24 - 19 Argentina at the half.
As I stepped away from the television for a bit, I'm not sure whether New Zealand have scored the bonus point already or not. It could be three tries, three conversions, and a kick, or four tries and two conversions.
There is a non-trivial possibility that New Zealand will have this locked up next week, even with two more weeks remaining in the tournament. However, things would have to happen just the right way - New Zealand win today with the bonus point, and New Zealand best South Africa next week, also with the bonus point, giving them 20 points. Then if Argentina and South Africa get four points at most today and next week, and Australia get at most nine today and next week, no one could touch New Zealand.
They call me Mr Celsius!
