Joe Schmidt has admitted Irelands maiden victory over New Zealand weighs heavily with daunting expectation.Irelands Kiwi boss stamped his name into his adopted nations folklore on Saturday, as his side despatched the back-to-back world champions 40-29 at Chicagos Soldier Field.Schmidt claimed Ireland capitalised on a vulnerable New Zealand beset by injuries in the United States -- and insisted the All Blacks will arrive for the November 19 rematch in Dublin an entirely different proposition.The peerless Brodie Retallick will be fit to solve New Zealands lock crisis at the Aviva Stadium clash, with Schmidt admitting Ireland targeted the All Blacks shifting flanker Jerome Kaino into the second row on Saturday.Its kind of daunting, said Schmidt of an anticipated hike in expectation after Irelands maiden win over New Zealand in 111 years of trying.The amount of emotion that went into that as well as organisation, because we didnt have too much time to train...but the training we did was bang on.All we can guarantee is that well keep working really hard and the players are really receptive to working really hard, and well just keep trying to grow the group.The reality is that we did get them when they were a little bit vulnerable.I remember after the World Cup and people said why is there such a big gap between north and south? But theres no chasm there.It only takes a little bit of fluctuation for someone to be off their game and another team to knock them over.Thats why I said that the All Blacks were a little bit under-staffed today, and you wouldnt say we were at full strength necessarily but we were at full fitness, and that was what we planned all along.I know some of the decisions were queried but we had in our minds exactly what we needed, or felt we needed, to do. Now, you dont always get that right, and things dont always work out as you hope, so its daunting from that perspective because those margins are very fine.Allied to Retallicks absence on Saturday, New Zealand also missed ankle injury victim Sam Whitelock and Luke Romano, who had returned home after a family bereavement.That forced a rejig with experienced flanker Kaino filling the second row breach, and 22-year-old Scott Barrett making a try-scoring debut off the bench.While Schmidt admitted being blown away by the victory, he still urged for a sense of calm.I think what it does demonstrate there is that any team is susceptible if there are injuries, said Schmidt.Take out those three second rows, and you get a few injuries during the game as well, and you can be vulnerable.I think rugby is such an inter-dependant game that as soon as one of the cogs gets shifted slightly, or theyre not quite in unison with the other cogs, the wheel doesnt turn too well.I certainly would sympathise with the All Blacks a little bit because that wasnt the All Blacks team that weve seen through the Rugby Championship and Id have no doubt Brodie Retallick will be fit to contest the match in Dublin -- and hell change a fair bit of what they can deliver at lineout time.Bullocking centre Robbie Henshaw scythed home for the fifth and decisive try on Saturday, cutting home after a fine switch with number eight Jamie Heaslip.Schmidt revealed Ireland had been desperate to run that play to capitalise on the 23-year-olds line-breaking talents since the summer tour to South Africa -- but had been forced to wait for the chance.I think he slipped off [Waisake] Naholo early in the game, but he just has massively exacting standards and I just thought he was incredible, said Schmidt.I didnt think anyone was going to stop him when he got that ball on the inside from Jamie.Theyd been practising that play for about, well, we were going to do it in the first Test in South Africa and we didnt get a scrum in the right place.
