Rugby: Injuries force six changes to All Blacks’ starting-15 for Test against Wallabies

# Rugby: Injuries forced All Blacks head coach Scott Robertson to make six changes to his starting team for Saturday’s Rugby Championship Test against the Wallabies in Perth. Among the changes are Damian McKenzie, who replaces Beauden Barrett at flyhalf, Leicester Fainga-anuku on the left wing in place of Caleb Clarke, and prop Tamaita Williams playing in Ethan de Groot’s absence. New Zealand has already retained the Bledisloe Cup by beating Australia in Auckland last week, but can still prevent the Springboks from clinching back-to-back titles.
