The Australia coach Robbie Deans admits to having mixed feelings about tomorrow's Tri-Nations and Bledisloe cup test against New Zealand but has made it clear there are no doubts about where his loyalties now lie.
Deans, who agreed to become Australia's first foreign coach after missing out on the All Blacks job to Graham Henry last year, concedes the clash at the Olympic Stadium will be an emotional occasion for him.
However, he says he has no regrets about plotting New Zealand's downfall.
Deans has been in the spotlight all week but was at pains to distance himself from suggestions the test would be a grudge match between himself and Henry.
The All Blacks will go into the match as slight favourites after winning six of their last seven tests against the Wallabies and holding the Bledisloe Cup for the past five seasons.
However, the Australians are also in great form, winning all four matches under Deans this season.
