Changes galore for the All Blacks after they were disappointed in the first game in charge of Ian Foster.
There is a very different bottom line headed by the return of Beauden Barrett on fullback thrust Damian McKenzie to the bank. Rieko Ioane, originally fell to the bench, now he is completely lost due to injury with Anton Lienert-Brown queuing in the outer center. Caleb Clarke makes his first debut on the left wing with Jorge Bridge suffering a nasty pectoral injury in training.
In the package Tupou Vai’i makes his first outing instead of Sam whitelock who has not approved the EIS protocols, while Dane coles replaces Codie taylor as a prostitute.
In the reserves, a debut is looming for Alex Hodgman.
Assistant coach John Plumtree said the All Blacks haven’t been shy about criticizing last week’s performance. “The guys have been pretty hard on themselves with that,” he said. “The reason for this is that they have their standards that they want to carry to any big contest and if those standards are not met, then you will get a reaction like that.”
Head coach Ian Foster awaits an answer. “It was our first test together last weekend and while there were some aspects of our game that got us quite excited, especially in regards to our set, we didn’t get the performance we wanted, so there was a lot for us to follow. working, ”he said. “We need to be smarter with our ball and more focused on defense.”
