The All Blacks are already having to tiptoe around injuries on tour

The All Blacks are already having to tiptoe around injuries on tour

3 September 2021

Patrick Tuipulotu and Ethan de Groot were unavailable for selection in Sunday's test against the Wallabies in Perth with groin and neck injuries respectively.

Coach Ian Foster says neither are serious, but given they have limited players on tour they have to take precautions.

Scott Barrett, Brad Weber, Beauden Barrett, Anton Lienert-Brown and Jordie Barrett return to the run-on side.

Wallabies coach Dave Rennie has made several changes to his side, with just one member of the Super Rugby Australia champion Reds making the run-on side.

Samu Kerevi returns to the midfield after two years away.
