Show Notes
The All Blacks are hungry to get back to number one in the rugby world.
Currently, the New Zealand side are second behind South Africa.
Assistant coach Brad Mooar told Elliott Smith Saturday's test against Tonga at Mt Smart Stadium is the first step to get back to the top spot.
"We don't get a two or three months pre season before our first game. It's really important we keep things clear and simple and go slow to go fast."
Ahead of the test, the All Blacks reconnected and gave back to the South Auckland community, particularly after being hit by Covid-19 last year.
Mooar says it was unbelievable to share and learn from different cultures.
"We had a public who were extremely excited and who were extremely grateful for us being there, when frankly, it's the other way around."
