All Blacks wing Caleb Clarke insists they've tried to tap into Aussie Rules to improve their high ball catching

The side have struggled in aerial contests this year, resulting in the summoning of Sydney Swans coach Dean Cox to offer advice prior to the Chicago test against Ireland.

Clarke is considering spending some time with the Swans in the off-season to master the skill.

Clarke is fit for Sunday morning's year-ending test against Wales after recovering from a head knock.

Prop Tevita Mafileo will be denied a possible debut due to a rib fracture.
