The All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has reiterated the high standards he expects from his players for tomorrow's Test against Japan in Tokyo.
It is the first official Test between the two sides outside of a World Cup.
Japan are ranked 15th in the world, the TAB is giving a 53 point head start, and the homeside will have to play without coach Eddie Jones who is still recovering from a stroke.
So despite being overwhelming favourites, Hansen's wary of slipping up through taking the Japanese lightly...
The All Blacks beat Japan 83-7 at the 2011 World Cup.
