Mix of youth and experience.

A relative young back line held together by the experience of Carter, Smith and Dagg. Savea and A Smith get debuts, whilst Guildford and SBW get a chance to sement a spot going forward.

A relatively experienced forward pack, filled with the usual suspects. Vito gets a chance to be the defensive rock at 6 and Retallick starts at lock.

Plaenty of experience in the resrves and the ability to change the game plan and skill set if the situation demands.

Should be interesting

Looks like a settled team, didn't expect anyhting else from the All Blacks
