All Blacks coach Ian Foster has given a blunt review of his side's 33-25 win over the Wallabies in the first Bledisloe Test last night, saying the final 15 minutes of the match were "disappointing".

The All Blacks coach said he was pleased with 50 minutes of their win but there's plenty to work on before next week's rematch.

The All Blacks drew first blood in this year's Bledisloe series but left Eden Park last night with some questions raised after the Wallabies managed to score 17 unanswered points in the final 12 minutes of the game.

Foster said it simply wasn't good enough.

The All Blacks now have a week to address last night's issues before they clash with the Wallabies again at Eden Park at 7.05pm next Saturday.
