Anyways.... I don't expect too many changes for the AB's. If Kaino is out injured Messam will obviously come into the starting lineup (and do a good job IMO). Personally I would start Ben Franks and LH prop, but the selectors do like Crockett for some reason. Honestly I wouldn't be too fazed if Nonu was out injured. It would be interesting to see what the do if he is out though. Fekitoa is probably the next in line but has very little experience at 12. Crotty has a lot more experience in the position and is a much 'safer' option, but a Crotty/Smith midfield would perhaps lack powerful running option....
What I found quite interesting was that Ben came on for Crockett on the loose head side, but once Moody joined the match Ben switched to the tight head side.
