    All Blacks loose forward Samipeni Finau can't wait to be part of a monster forward pack in this evening's test against Japan in Yokohama


    The front eight weighs in at a daunting 950 kilograms - just 21 kegs short of the French test record.

    Finau is particularly keen to be reunited with Chiefs team mate and number eight Wallace Sititi, who he says has been a revelation at international level.
