Centre Conrad Smith, who has recovered from his hamstring strain, returns to the starting XV, while loose forward Jerome Kaino has recovered from his knee injury and comes into the starting line up at blindside flanker, with Kieran Read moving to number eight.

In other changes from last week’s side, Keven Mealamu starts at hooker, with Andrew Hore suffering from rib cartilage damage, while Tanerau Latimer, who made his Test debut from the bench last week, starts in the number seven jersey, with Adam Thomson out injured with a broken bone in his hand.

The two players called into the All Blacks this week, Waikato and Chiefs rake Aled de Malmanche and Canterbury and Crusaders flanker George Whitelock are on the bench.

All Blacks Coach Graham Henry said: “The return of Jerome and Conrad from injury will be a boost for the guys. The team was disappointed with the way they played in last weekend’s loss to France and are looking forward to making big improvements this week.”
