I would note that there were a shit load of people here freaking out and losing their shit during those vital group matches against Namibia and Georgia.
True. Despite Hansen making it plainly obvious that they were approaching those games as testing elements of their play we'd benefit from come the knockouts.
And it was interesting to hear him say that we're now at the point in the cycle where they feel it's time to develop their game, having not done so for a couple of years due to all the analysis. I become more and more impressed with the set up in the All Blacks.
Don't think they were tapering off either, just training right through. Probably a much better approach than going for 3 70 point victories and then being shocked when playing a decent team.

30 point margin.
Given the way they dropped their heads last weekend, a couple of early tries and it could get very ugly.
-
What was that shit with our first possession?
And now dropped a bomb. Shit from you Barretts
-
Some average looking defence there , before the break , they were making good metres
-
That was some shit defense right there.
-
Great clearance from Jordie.
We need to get our heads in the game and up the intensity.
-
Huge gap just off the ruck
-
Creaky scrum. Maybe time to wake the fuck up a bit?
-
Christ. Didn't they practice defending on the flanks this week. This is appalling.

We look in super rugby mode , too loose
