KEY POINTS:
All Black coach Graham Henry and his England opposite Martin Johnson were reluctant to enter into any long dissection of the performance of referee Alain Rolland, who sinbinned four England players in yesterday's test.
Johnson, who was entitled to be the most aggrieved, offered an "unusual, but that's the way it goes" observation before adding he would have to review the tape. The sinbinnings, though, had affected his side's ability to play.
Henry felt Rolland was "strict" but consistent, and suggested he was the best official in the world in what were often very difficult circumstances in international rugby.
He added: "I agree with what the referee did."
