All Blacks have reason to be wary!

According to recent reports, Steve Hansen is quoted as saying the All Blacks are wary of an Australian in this weekends Bledisloe Cup fixture.

Even with the Aussies having a tough time in the media in recent weeks, I do believe they can pull it together in this weekends fixture. Considering Kurtley Beale did not perform too well in the 12-all draw against the All Blacks two months ago, he wont really be missed this weekend.

The Aussies will be putting their bodies on the line this weekend if speculation is believed surrounding the coaching future of Ewen McKenzie.

The All Blacks are still hurting from their loss in Johannesburg, will be just as determined to return to winning ways. with the All Blacks having nothing to loose in this match it might have been a great opportunity for Steve Hansen to experiment with his selections ahead of the World Cup next year. It would also have been a good time to give some key players a bit of a breather after a tough season so far.

I have to agree with the comments Steve Hansen made with regards to the Aussies being to good a side to crumble this weekend, but instead they could come out and unite as a tam.

With the shock loss to Argentina few weeks ago and another Kurtley Beale scandal, the Aussies could well be a surprise package this weekend.
