Wallabies coach Michael Cheika is keeping the All Blacks guessing, delaying his team naming until the eve of Saturday's Bledisloe Cup finale in Auckland. Cheika has shuffled his second row all year, mixing and matching Coleman and Arnold with Simmons, Douglas, Sam Carter and Will Skelton. Cheika worked Douglas and Simmons in tandem at Thursday's training session in Sydney, alternating the experienced duo with first-year internationals Coleman and Arnold. Nick Phipps is expected to replace Will Genia after the in-form halfback's return to his French club commitments, though Cheika could decide to give Nick Frisby a start. Despite the Bledisloe Cup already being lost for another year, the Wallabies are desperate to break their 30-year Eden Park hoodoo.
