All Blacks coach Steve Hansen refused to get carried away by the comprehensive 36-0 thrashing of the Wallabies on Saturday, saying he was “proud” of his side but that discipline remained an issue.
It was a ruthless performance by the New Zealand at Eden Park, just five weeks before they start their World Cup defence, as they unleashed some pent-up rage.
Rival rugby nations would have taken careful note just how sharp the All Blacks were, but Hansen was not prepared to write off the Wallabies despite the five-tries-to-nil shellacking.
“I was really proud of the boys, how they responded to last week. There’s been a lot of things said in the media and that creates the pressure that you have to step up to the plate.”
