The All Blacks have shut up shop at their first training session in Auckland ahead of their opening match of Rugby World Cup 2011.
After being allowed to view the first 15 minutes of training, which consisted of a light jog and stretches, all media were asked to leave.
Radiosport Rugby editor Nigel Yalden says this is a departure from normal All Blacks protocol, where New Zealand media have been allowed to stay previously.
He says that, and the black polythene wrapping around the the Douglas Field training ground, show the All Blacks are either on high alert or highly paranoid.
