All Blacks Late Hammer Blow As Beauden Barrett Ruled Out Debutant Added To The Bench For Wallabies Test

All Blacks: Late hammer blow as Beauden Barrett ruled out, debutant added to the bench for Wallabies Test

Beauden Barrett ruled out of Wallabies Test

Beauden Barrett has been ruled out of the All Blacks' Test against the Wallabies on Saturday with a shoulder injury.

The fly-half suffered the injury in the All Blacks' 39-37 win over South Africa last weekend and will be replaced by Richie Mo'unga in the starting line-up.

Debut for Taukei'aho

There is one change to the All Blacks bench, with uncapped hooker Samisoni Taukei'aho added to the squad.

Taukei'aho, who plays for the Blues in Super Rugby, has been in impressive form this season and will provide cover for Dane Coles and Codie Taylor.

Wallabies make two changes

The Wallabies have made two changes to their starting line-up for the Test, with Jack Dempsey replacing Izack Rodda in the second row and Noah Lolesio coming in for James O'Connor at fly-half.

Dempsey has been in good form for the Waratahs in Super Rugby AU this season, while Lolesio has impressed for the Brumbies.

Big match for both sides

The Test is a big one for both sides, with the Wallabies looking to end a run of seven straight defeats to the All Blacks.

The All Blacks, meanwhile, will be looking to continue their unbeaten record under head coach Ian Foster.
