While there is plenty of debate on whether the All Blacks will start Richie Mo'unga or Beauden Barrett for the first Bledisloe Test, Wallabies Assistant Coach Matt Taylor believes both are exceptional talents and they will have their work cut out.

Taylor says they believe Mo'unga will start with Aaron Smith in the halves but that doesn't mean that the All Blacks might have some selection shocks.

Throwing winning records into the mix adds some spice to the debate where Mo'unga has won 7 out of 10 tests when starting at first-five for New Zealand, while Barrett has won 37 out of 43.

The Wallabies have never beaten the All Blacks when Barrett has started at 10.

The All Blacks will take on the Wallabies in the first Bledisloe Cup match at 3pm Sunday in Wellington.
