2023-07-13 09:03:02

For the second day of the Rugby Championship, New Zealand will host South Africa. It will be Saturday morning, at 9 a.m. French time. Winners in Argentina (41-12), the All Blacks will pass a real test once morest a team which also won its first match, and in a funny way, once morest Australia (43-12).

For this shock, Ian Foster, the New Zealand coach, made five changes. At the heel, Codie Taylor returns, and replaces Dan Coles who does not even appear on the sheet. In the second line, the young Josh Lord (22 years old) gives way to the old and experienced Brodie Retallick (32 years old) who was not in Argentina. At the opening, despite a conclusive first game, Damian McKenzie is left to rest. It is Richie Mo’unga who will be associated with Aaron Smith.

Foster has also decided to change his two wingers: Caleb Clarke who will sit on the bench and Emoni Narawa are replaced by Will Jordan and Mark Telea. Only one line has not been touched, it is the third. Shannon Frizell, Sam Cane and Ardie Savea retain the coach’s confidence.
