However, I would not yet call the All Blacks great. This is not NZ a la Sean Fitzpatrick, Zinzan Brooke, et cetera, of 1995 (when they were RORTED in the World Cup final). They need to fix up their lineouts - just when I thought they got it right last week, they stuffed them up tonight - and a few other elements of their play also need working on, like their scrums. A bit of practice, though, and this could be a great All Blacks, like the Invincibles of 1995 (That's what they were nicknamed, I think ...).
So yes, to recap, Australia was utterly destroyed. NZ scored 7 tries, 3 by Rokocoko, to take his tally to 10 tries from 5 games, which is simply outstanding (I thought he had 8 going into this match but it must've only been 7). I am VERY HAPPY and this was just the victory I wanted to see.
