All Blacks halfback Cam Roigard says the loss to South Africa has not been forgotten and New Zealand must take lessons from that defeat into the Bledisloe Cup opener against Australia at Eden Park.
Roigard also mentioned a "weird" feeling heading into the test, offering little further detail.
Anton Segner said the squad has turned its sights on the Wallabies match and is focused on what comes next.
The Bledisloe Cup opener at Eden Park is the first chance for the All Blacks to bounce back from the Springboks setback.
