The All Blacks' dominance of world rugby has been recognised with four among the five finalists for the International Rugby Player of the Year.
Last year's IRPA player of the year Daniel Carter is again among the finalists.
Joining him are his captain Richie McCaw and forwards JerryCollins and Carl Hayman.
Ireland lock Paul O'Connell was the only non-New Zealand player to make the list of five finalists.
The All Blacks and France are the two nominees for team of the year, after their respective Tri-Nations and Six Nations triumphs.
Taranaki, Hurricanes and All Blacks lock Jason Eaton, who had a spell on the blindside flank against France in Sunday's 47-3 victory, is among the finalists for international newcomer of the year.
He is joined by Ireland centre Andrew Trimble, Irishman Jerry Flannery, Australian Rocky Elsom and South Africa's Pierre Spies.
The awards are voted on by members of the world's professional rugby players associations - Wales, Scotland, Ireland, England, South Africa, Australia, France and New Zealand.
Rules for the IRPA Awards state players can only vote for players and teams outside their own international team.
Former England international and IRPA chairman Damian Hopley said the awards were the pinnacle of international peer recognition.
"The proliferation of New Zealand players across the nominations for the IRPA Awards is just reward following another outstanding season for the All Blacks."
