I'm obviously thrilled we won. Thought our back row in particular were great.

We're still far to one-dimensional though, the backs still only get about a fifth of the ball and Pollard and DDA maybe need to pass a bit more (despite both being good carriers).

If we can win playing like we are I'd be thrilled but it's going to be a tall order. A couple break away tries from Wales would have buried us, which is something NZ is certainly capable of. I'll remain hopeful, but ultimately making the semis is respectable, especially considering our rough year.
