The All Blacks are two days away from defending the Eden Park fortress again in 2025 as they take on the Wallabies in the first Bledisloe Cup test. 

Scott Barrett has been ruled out due to a shoulder injury meaning Ardie Savea takes over the captaincy, Cam Roigard, Codie Taylor, Fabian Holland and Caleb Clarke all return to the starting side and Patrick Tuipolotu and Cortez Ratima return to the bench having recovered for their injuries.

D'Arcy caught up with former All Black prop Craig Dowd to discuss the team named.
