A much-revamped All Blacks line-up will confront Australia in Saturday's second Bledisloe Cup test against Australia.
Injuries account for four of the seven changes to the run-on side.
Captain Scott Barrett returns at lock, Tamaiti Williams and Fletcher Newell start as props and Peter Lakai has his first test start, at number eight.
In the backs, Quinn Tupaea dons the 13 jersey and Leicester Fainga'anuku starts on the left wing - his first test since the 2023 World Cup.
NZ Herald ruby writer Liam Napier says the All Blacks are striving for consistency ahead of Saturday's match.
