    SOUNDBITE (English) Jacques Burger, Namibia captain:  (about the game)

    "Yeah, obviously a bit disappointed with the result, but happy with a lot of things in the match. I said before there's going to be a lot of negatives. There's going to be tough times playing the best team in the world, but I'm taking away a lot of positives. We fought well. I'm proud of the boys and I think going into the next match we can take a lot of good stuff away. All is not lost. We got a lot to do still and our aim is still to win one game at the World Cup and I think we're on track."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Phil Davies, Namibia coach:  (about the game)

    "We knew it was going to be a tough evening against the All Blacks obviously, but we wanted to take certain aspects of our game.... things we'd been working on. We wanted to try and see evidence out on the field and we did on occasions. Other times we didn't because we were under pressure, giving some penalties away here and there. But overall, the effort the players put in.... if you consider previous World Cup results against tier one nations where.... we've taken a step forward. So, we're very proud of the players and as Jacques has said we have certain areas of the game now that we can take forward into the next game against Tonga."
