All Blacks coach Ian Foster believes his side were taught some nice lessons at the breakdown by the Fiji Airways Flying Fijians last Saturday.

The Flying Fijians really impressed in the breakdown area in the first test with Johnny Dyer being in the thick of things on a number of occasions.

In the press conference, Foster says often the breakdown looks like a side is being exposed by a physical side but sometimes its just good strategy.

He says they won a number of turnovers in the game as well and their main focus will be on their ball carriers.

The All Blacks will also welcome back Ardie Savea for tomorrow’s clash who is expected to add more firepower to the already potent forward pack.

Savea says it is just about doing their job right.

The All Blacks beat the Flying Fijians 57-23 last week.

They will meet again at 7.05pm tomorrow.
