The All Blacks will be determined to continue their Bledisloe Cup dominance when they clash with the Wallabies at Eden Park tonight.

Coach Ian Foster says they will put everything they have to retain the Bledisloe Cup this year.

He says this competition is a focal point of their campaign in a year and they know the Wallabies are desperate.

The All Blacks have played the Wallabies 170 times with the Men in Black winning 117 games, lost 45 matches and drawn 8 times.

The last time the Wallabies won a match at Eden Park was in 1986 where they beat the All Blacks 22-9 and 2002 was the last year they won the Bledisloe Cup.

Sevu Reece and George Bower have been named in the starting line-up for the All Blacks while Rob Valetini will feature for the Wallabies.

The All Blacks will face the Wallabies in the Bledisloe opener at 7.05 tonight.
