NZ really needs to hold some for later bookings, e.g. us that are buy last minute tickets that are 3x the price they we're selling 2 months ago.
I had the same problem end of last year AKL-BNE on the 77W. Asked at check-in if there was any available, and was given a seat no problem in a Premium Economy row 28. Row 27-31 are usually held for Works Deluxe on the 77W Transtasman.
Could be worth giving Air NZ a call, or otherwise asking on check-in
