So here we are, Andy Goon, Jim Hamilton, very lucky to have got a few minutes with Steve Hansen,

0:04.4

the all-black coach, here with Rugby Pass, Steve has the build-up to the game been.

0:07.9

Look boys, it's been pretty good actually. We've focused on all our core responsibilities and

0:17.0

we feel that Cam said they know that we'll put together a performance that we and the nation

0:22.0

can be proud of. So obviously talking about your spat with Warren Gatland in the press,

0:26.5

you're talking about then playing two different teams and sprinting the squads,

1:47.9
