Sevu Reece and George Bower will once again start for the All Blacks while Hoskins Sotutu has been dropped for the second test match against the Fiji Airways Flying Fijians.

Ardie Savea, Akira Ioane, Anton Lienert-Brown and Richie Mo’unga return to the starting line-up.

Savea and Ioane are expected to provide the All Blacks much needed guidance at the breakdown as Fiji dominated that area last weekend.

Dane Coles who scored four tries last weekend is on the bench.

Other players that will start for the All Blacks are Codie Taylor, Nepo Laulala, Scott Barrett, Samuel Whitelock, Luke Jacobson, Aaron Smith, David Havili, Will Jordan and Damian McKenzie.

The All Blacks had beaten Fiji 57-23 last Saturday.

The All Blacks will face Fiji at 7.05pm this Saturday in Hamilton.
