Ireland v All Blacks - Chicago2

Carter on the bench would allow a 6/2 split.

Might as well if the other options are Ratima and Christie but I can’t see them trying it. Carter will probably start on the wing.

I think we should go in with settled team, similar to last test we played. Be a couple of changes , but not many. Let's face it this is Ireland's first test since 6Ns, we should be a bit more battle ready coming off our season.

Hopefully Finau is ready to step into lock if needed.

@MN5 I am sure Ardie is already looking forward to another opportunity of playing on the Wing.

[Young Hamiltons]

Surely give the boys a run who rep against Aus...bar injuries...which is a concern of late.

All 36 All Blacks who travelled to Chicago are available for selection.

Scott Robertson didn't give much away in yesterday's press conference.

He expects Ireland to be strong and doesn't expect them to be rusty.

The aim is to win 4 from 4 and achieve a Grand Slam.

Jordie Barrett is looking forward to the game. A strong indiction that he's starting.
