All Blacks 26-man touring squad confirmed: (
http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/4008584/All-Blacks-released-for-provincial-play)
Forwards: John Afoa, Anthony Boric, Tom Donnelly, Corey Flynn, Ben Franks, Owen Franks, Jerome Kaino, Richie McCaw, Keven Mealamu, Kieran Read, Brad Thorn, Victor Vito, Sam Whitelock and Tony Woodcock.
Backs: Daniel Carter, Jimmy Cowan/Alby Mathewson, Aaron Cruden, Israel Dagg, Cory Jane, Mils Muliaina, Ma'a Nonu, Rene Ranger, Joe Rokocoko, Conrad Smith, Benson Stanley and Piri Weepu.
No surprises, with Messem and Kahui (who is still recovering from injury) the two players from the 28-man tri-nations squad to miss out. There will be a decision on the fitness of Cowan at a later date - if he is not fit, Mathewson will go in his place.
I predict the AB's will win this game by 15 - though wouldn't be surprised if it was a bit closer.
