From Checkpoint, 5:48 pm on 7 July 2022

The All Blacks have made just one change to the starting 15 for their next encounter with the Irish on Saturday in Dunedin.

Dalton Papali'i takes over at blindside from Scott Barrett, who moves to lock. Will Jordan returns, after recovering from Covid and will be on the bench.

Coach Ian Foster is looking forward to playing at another sold out stadium with an opportunity to seal the three-test series, following last week's win at Eden Park.

Rugby reporter Joe Porter has the details.
