Waisake Naholo and Julian Savea at an All Blacks training. New Zealand travel to Sydney to face Australia on Saturday for what promises to be a feisty meeting of old foes, before South Africa host Argentina later in Nelspruit. It is likely, therefore, the All Blacks will face a vengeful, hurting Australia, who have brought back a number of their overseas-based, experienced players to bolster the squad that competed against England. It's a problem his coaching counterparts in the competition would be delighted to have and Cheika irked the New Zealand coach last week when he suggested this would be a difficult poser for Hansen. The Boks have their own wish for revenge over the All Blacks having been edged by their great rivals in the World Cup semifinals last year.
