All Blacks can secure Rugby Championship and Bledisloe Cup as they continue World Cup preparations
The All Blacks have brought their strongest available line-up, making only one forced change to the team that humbled South Africa 35-20 in Auckland two weeks ago.
Home fans have had little to cheer since Covid-19, with the Wallabies losing their last five matches against the All Blacks. Instead, the Wallabies have continued to serve up the same self-destructive, error-prone fare seen under Jones's predecessor Dave Rennie. Exciting rookie Carter Gordon, who was two when Australia last held the Bledisloe Cup, will start at outhalf next to Tate McDermott, relegating old hands Nic White and Quade Cooper to the bench.“There’s nothing better than winning against New Zealand because you feel the country sinking,” he joked to reporters on Thursday.
