PRE MATCH
Beware the wounded All Blacks. After a 36-34 defeat to South Africa in Wellington two weeks ago, the All Blacks will want to bounce back in convincing fashion, targeting a demolition of Argentina in front of their own fans.
However, Argentina won't be easy-beats by any means, coming into this match off the back of an impressive 23-19 win over Australia on the Gold Coast, targeting a first-ever victory over New Zealand.
Steve Hansen has resisted the urge for full-scale changes, with only injuries affecting what would be a full-strength side.
Captain Kieran Read is rested ahead of next week's trip to South Africa, seeing Sam Whitelock take the reigns as skipper.
Jordie Barrett finds himself on the sidelines, with Waisake Naholo coming onto the left wing, Ben Smith moves to fullback in his place. Elsewhere, prop angus Ta'avao will make his debut from the bench.
