The Sydney Morning Herald's Jamie Pandaram expresses his concern over the inability of the Wallabies' ability to break down New Zealand.
"If there was any lack of respect in the Bledisloe Cup, it was the All Blacks' blatant disregard for Australia's attack. Far from fearing the magic tricks of Quade Cooper and co, the Kiwis gave them the ball in prime field position and said ''Do your best'' before smashing them.
How's this for disrespect - with the first five possessions New Zealand had in their own half in Saturday's match, they opted for short kicks or midfield bombs every time. No clearing kicks necessary, no concern of turning over possession in dangerous territory."
