New Zealand rugby head coach Steve Hansen and his selectors have named the All Black team to play Argentina in the Rugby Championship Test at Trafalgar Park, Nelson, on Saturday.
The starting line up features a number of changes with first five-eighth Richie Mo’unga to make his first Test start, halfback Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi set to make his Test debut off the bench and Nehe Milner-Skudder returning to the Test side for the first time since October last year.
Milner-Skudder was injured in the All Blacks Test in Cape Town in last year’s Rugby Championship and returns on the right wing.
As well as Mo’unga and Tahuriorangi, other back changes in the matchday 23 see TJ Perenara named to start at halfback and Ben Smith move back to fullback.
In the forwards, Karl Tu’inukuafe starts at loosehead prop, in for the injured Joe Moody, and Tim Perry comes into the prop reserves.
Hansen further added that the team was looking forward to playing the first-ever All Blacks Test in Nelson.
