I thought the Middle Earthers looked, if not beatable, then certainly less imperious than usual. The Aussies definitely made them earn it 
They definitely miss Dan Carter, but then, who wouldn't

Outstanding defensive play by the All Blacks but its disappointing to see that they have abandoned the open play and running the ball that they used to be famous for. Whenever the Aussies tried a bit of that style of play then they started to make headway, but they did not continue long enough.
It seems to be a habit of the threes these days to catch the ball and keep running until they are tackled. If they moved the ball around the field they would be more likely to find a way through the defence. I never saw Nonnu pass the ball once after it was passed to him.
