Much has been made of England's triumph a year ago when everything clicked and they made the World Champions look ordinary.
Pushing boundaries
Pushing the boundaries and stepping out of your comfort zone are traits that Oliver still lives by and the man who has toured all over the world, says his latest tour was by far the scariest.
He said: "I have just finished touring with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra narrating Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf. I felt very privileged, it came from left field but I had to give it a go.
"It was so far out of my comfort zone but that is where all growth comes from - those experiences that take you out from what you know and make you apprehensive, that is where you have to take yourself to push your own boundaries to experience life."
Attacking mindset
Oliver is expecting an almighty clash on Saturday and is hoping that England go into this game with the same ambitions they had last year.
He added: "The All Blacks will go into this game with the intention of playing attacking rugby. If England go into this game with the same mind-set as they did last year, well then it should be a fantastic game.
"England should take a lot of credit for the way they played last year - I think they would have beaten anyone in the world that day, they did phenomenally well. The All Blacks came back in the second half and scored two tries to make it 14-15.
"A lot of teams would have crumbled under that momentum swing, but England hit straight back and scored two or three more tries. That takes some doing to do that to the world champions. England have already done it once and have to believe that they can do it again - there is no reason why they cannot.
"However New Zealand will not be too happy with their performances Japan and France. It was good that France turned up to play and New Zealand will be happy with the way they responded to the French intensity. But the win was not quite in the style they would have liked and I think all the guys have had a game now and I think they will really turn up and put a good performance on the track. I am not sure how much they will win by, but I do think New Zealand will win on Saturday."
