All Black coach Steve Hansen said the side simply had to keep working for the whole 80 minutes this week. ''As a result of that, we threw poor passes, our skill execution was poor, our defence was poor. The All Blacks are going to have to increase their intensity as Hansen expects a determined effort from the Wallabies. The Wallabies were bound to be more physical than last week, Hansen believed. Hansen said Franks' injury had been described to him as the tendons in his Achilles being like knotted hair.
