Savea has suffered his form issues for the Hurricanes and All Blacks this year, but has played extremely well in his four starts during the Rugby Championship. Since that test Savea scored a try in each of his next three tests against Australia in Wellington, Argentina in Hamilton and South Africa in Christchurch. As a finisher Savea is virtually without peer, but it is his reliability which really sets him apart now. Savea will be relied upon to drive the pace to a level the Wallabies can't withstand in the second half. Reserves: Codie Taylor, Wyatt Crockett, Charlie Faumuina, Liam Squire, Ardie Savea, Tawera Kerr-Barlow, Aaron Cruden, Malakai Fekitoa.
