All Blacks veteran Brodie Retallick is preparing to take on the challenge of leading the line-out when they meet Ireland in their second test tonight.

In the absence of Sam Whitelock, Retallick is expected to make the calls in the line-outs where they dominated Ireland last week.

The 31-year-old will partner with Scott Barrett at locks with former Blues captain Patrick Tuipulotu to provide cover on the bench. The All Blacks will meet Ireland at 7.05 tonight.
