There are four changes to the All Blacks starting team named to play the Wallabies in Sydney and two in the reserves.
In the forwards, Ethan de Groot has returned from his neck injury to start at loosehead prop, while Pasilio Tosi will prepare to play just his second All Blacks test match, having debuted off the bench against Fiji in San Diego earlier in the season.

In the backs, Caleb Clarke has recovered from his back injury to take the left wing, while Will Jordan is on the other wing and Beauden Barrett will start at fullback.
All Blacks head coach Scott Robertson believed it was the best team to face the Australians in Sydney.
“We have selected an experienced team which has combinations that have played some of our best rugby this season.
“The Bledisloe Cup is so revered by both of these teams, we are expecting a classic showdown against our Australian rivals.
“We have acknowledged the rich history of the Cup this week as a team and recognise that history does not bestow any rights. The Bledisloe Cup is always hard-earned and each year is its own chapter in the Bledisloe story.”
Australia last held the Bledisloe Cup in 2002, after beating the All Blacks 16-14 in Sydney.
The match kicks-off at 5.45pm New Zealand Time on Saturday.
