Reid keen to step up to Jones' mark

11:43 am on 6 November 2009

The New Zealand number eight Kieran Reid says going head to head with his Welsh opposite Ryan Jones in Cardiff on Sunday will be one of his biggest test's as an All Black.

The All Blacks head to the Millennium Stadium on a high after a comfortable win over the Wallabies in Japan last weekend and coach Graham Henry is in a confident mood making several changes to the side.

Kieran Reid has replaced Rodney So'oialo at the back of the scrum and the Canterbury loose forward says containing Ryan Jones won't be easy.

He says the All Blacks must start quickly if they're to have any chance of taking the loud and large Cardiff crowd out of the game.
