There are new faces across the board for the first All Blacks test of the season. 

Four uncapped All Blacks will be unleashed in Dunedin, with number 8 Christian Lio-Willie and lock Fabian Holland starting, while prop Ollie Norris and flanker Du'Plessis Kirifi will storm off the bench. 

On the French side of things, with five debutants featuring in the run-on side and three in the reserves. 

Newstalk ZB’s Voice of Rugby Elliott Smith told Ryan Bridge this feels like more of a team Scott Robertson wants to pick and unleash on the world, as opposed to trying specifically to win. 

He says it feels a sea change in the All Blacks selection philosophy.
