Graham Henry has brought in the big guns for the Tri Nations decider against the Wallabies on Saturday, what do you think?
All Blacks coach Graham Henry has made plenty of changes for the Tri Nations decider against the Wallabies at Brisbane on Saturday. The big guns are back for this match with only Sam Whitelock, Adam Thomson, Keven Mealamu and Tony Woodcock starting for the second match in a row.
There will be plenty of interest in the hotly contested outside backs positions especially with the exclusion of exciting players like Israel Dagg and Sonny Bill Williams from the matchday 22.
This is close to a top All Blacks team, how important do you think it is that the All Blacks win well on Saturday night? Or do you just see it as a warm up for the Rugby World Cup?
I think there is a psychological edge to winning this and we don't want the Wallabies to get any more confidence.
All Blacks: Mils Muliaina, Cory Jane, Conrad Smith, Ma'a Nonu, Zac Guildford, Dan Carter, Piri Weepu, Kieran Read, Richie McCaw (c), Adam Thomson, Sam Whitelock, Brad Thorn, Owen Franks, Keven Mealamu, Tony Woodcock. Reserves: Andrew Hore, John Afoa, Ali Williams, Victor Vito, Andy Ellis, Colin Slade, Isaia Toeava.
These changes make it difficult for managers with limited trades.
