Wallabies gamble on 4 rookies in crunch All Blacks Test

  • Hoskins Sotutu will get his first All Black start in this weekend's Bledisloe Cup match

Rennie has drafted in debutants Noah Lolesio at fly-half and Irae Simone at inside centre to take their place, while dumping fullback Tom Banks for veteran Dane Haylett-Petty.

Match-day 23: (Test caps in brackets): 1.

"I have been really pleased with his involvement", Foster said.

Queensland Reds pair Tate McDermott and Fraser McReight are also in line to make their Test debuts, having been picked on the reserves bench.

"Nothing beats time together and for us this week with our lineup - we have been able to keep a lot of consistency".

"Tate and Fraser have had big Super Rugby seasons and have impressed in training over the past month".

The All Blacks have made minimal changes to their starting squad for this weekend's Tri-Nations curtain-raiser against the Wallabies in Sydney.

Hoskins has been in devastating form for the Blues this year and has come off the bench for NZ in both Bledisloe tests.

While the match is the third Bledisloe fixture, it is also the first game of the Tri Nations - the former Rugby Championship, rebranded after world champions South Africa pulled out - also including Argentina.

Sotutu will start for the All Blacks at No.8 with Ardie Savea on paternity leave.

There are two more changes to the starting forward pack for Saturday: Karl Tu'inukuafe comes in at loosehead prop for Joe Moody, who is still going through HIA (head injury assessment) protocols, while Samuel Whitelock returns at starting lock.

Caleb Clarke will look to continue his devastating form when he runs on the wing. Three-test backrower Dalton Papalii joins the bench along with center Ngani Laumape.

"The chance to go and win a trophy that's precious to us is exciting".

New Zealand will retain the Bledisloe Cup, which it has held since 2002, if it wins on Saturday.

"None of our players, even our experienced ones, have had to win the trophy in Australia", he said.

New Zealand haven't had to wrap up the Bledisloe Cup on Australian soil in 11 years and for coach Ian Foster that's a massive motivation to snuff out Wallaby hopes of keeping the series alive when the two sides meet Saturday in Sydney.

"In the past the deciding game has always been in New Zealand, so I think it's a great challenge for us".

All Blacks - 15 Beauden Barrett, 14 Jordie Barrett, 13 Anton Lienert-Brown, 12 Jack Goodhue, 11 Caleb Clarke, 10 Richie Mo'unga, 9 Aaron Smith, 8 Hoskins Sotutu, 7 Sam Cane (c), 6 Shannon Frizell, 5 Sam Whitelock, 4 Patrick Tuipulotu 3 Ofa Tu'ungafasi, 2 Dane Coles, 1 Karl Tu'inukuafe.
