With his final All Blacks Test approaching, coach Steve Hansen isn't focusing on what comes next in his illustrious career.
Having been involved with the All Blacks since 2004, first as an assistant to Sir Graham Henry before taking over as head coach in 2012, Hansen will tomorrow oversee his final Test, taking on Wales in the Rugby World Cup's third place playoff.
Yet to publicly announce his future in rugby, Hansen is keeping his cards close to his chest before his final match in the coaches' box, only concentrating on Wales.
"I've got plenty of time after Friday night to reflect on all sorts of stuff," Hansen told media.
"I won't sit down and reflect, what I'll be looking for is how we're playing, and what can I do to help us play even better?
"When it's over, what do we have to do? Are we in a situation where we've won, or are we in a situation where we've lost? What do I have to do to help these young men deal with a positive or a negative.
"I'm going somewhere else after this. I'll have plenty of time to reflect there with a cold beer, a hot towel, and anything else you want me to have."
