All Blacks hooker Dane Coles insists the credit rests solely with his teammates, following his historic four-try haul in Saturday's 57-23 victory over Fiji in Dunedin.
Entering the field as a second-half replacement for Codie Taylor, and with the All Blacks ahead 26-16, Coles dotted down for a hat-trick of tries from lineout drives, before popping up at the right place at the right time to add a fourth five minutes from fulltime.
It was the first time an All Blacks forward has scored four times, made all the more impressive by the fact that Coles only entered the fray in the 50th minute.
But speaking post-match, an almost sheepish Coles refused to take any credit for his history-making feat, instead imploring the cliche of giving all the credit to his teammates.
"It was good. I didn't do too much, just sat at the back of a drive," Coles says.
"I think it was the way that the boys, especially Scratcher [Ethan Blackadder] just lifted the tempo a bit, we took some good control.
"It was good leadership from Sammy Whitelock and Guzzler [Brodie Retallick] just to, I suppose, cool the ship and get us back in the game.
Asked whether or not he even touched the ball more than four times for his four tries, Coles doubled down on the need to praise the rest of the All Blacks' forwards for his individual display.
"I've got to keep my feet firmly on the ground here, because everyone's trying to build me up," Coles joked.
"Like I said, it was [off] the back of the forwards [doing] all the work - like the old cliche.
"I just stayed at the back and steered the ship.
"I managed to dot down, but I'm not too sure how many times I touched the ball. I'll take it."
Meanwhile, the All Blacks' win came against a solid Fijian side, who put on an impressive display after a disrupted build up containing stints in managed isolation, and missing key players unable to get into New Zealand from Australia after the trans-Tasman travel pause.
In fact, Saturday's first test came nearly 10 years to the day after the All Blacks' last encounter with Fiji - a 60-14 victory in Dunedin ahead of the 2011 World Cup.
It's been so long in between those two matches that Saturday was the first time in Coles' 76-test career that he'd lined up against Fiji.
"It was awesome, I've seen a lot of those guys playing over in [their] European teams. Some of those guys are awesome.
"It was cool, I've never played Fiji before [they're] big, big humans.
"It will be good for us. Good physicality in the lads, so we've got to be better.
"It was good for them to get a run, and for us to play a real physical team. It sets up next week quite nicely."
