Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Steve Hansen, New Zealand head coach: (Q: Have we seen the best of the All Blacks yet or is there more to come?)

"Well we're always looking to improve. The answer is, no you haven't seen the best yet, because I think we can get better. Will they do that on Saturday, the opposition has got a lot to say on how well you play. But I know we've had a good week, prepared really well and built day by day. I know we're looking forward to tomorrow immensely and we're excited by it and I know that win or lose we'll put in a performance that we can be proud of and if we've got enough to win it, that will be great, if we're not good enough to win it, then we've got to accept that too and go away and look at ourselves and say 'right what have I got to do better'."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Dan Carter, New Zealand outhalf: (Q: Eddie Jones believes you're in for a fairytale finale?)

"Yeah in a final like this nothing is guaranteed and it's whoever can play the best tomorrow. So that's going to be a fantastic occasion, both teams will be prepared to die for their cause tomorrow and that's what makes it such a great contest, two quality sides going at it and yeah no matter what's happened in the past is irrelevant for what happens tomorrow."
