There better be an absolutely outstanding reason CLW is not starting

Next week as in against Scotland for the All Blacks? He better be

@jimmyb The game next weekend for the All Blacks XV is England A in Bristol.

[Bovidae]

This looks more like a B team in some positions. You would expect the strongest XV starts next game.

Boshier at 6 is a strange selection, a position he has played the least in.

It really doesn't scream JJ to me. Odd.

t’s a big match, a bigger match than some think imo

A bit bigger than JJ was probably thinking initially.

[WoodysRFC]

Rate Flanders highly, would have him around the All Blacks, so I'm glad to see he's got a start here.

Is there any way to watch this game?

Sky Sports 2 in New Zealand, Premier Sports in the UK.

[Tim]

@Mr-Fish Thanks!

[Bovidae]

@Tim NZR+ too.

[Bones]

Just in case it hasn't been mentioned, it's on Premier Sports in the UK.

[family man]

@Bones what time please?

[Tim]

@Bovidae

NZR+ is a thoroughly dogshit app. Doesn't even have an upcoming streams or fixtures feature. Never remembers logins. Randomly stopped being able to stream video on my tablet the other day. Still works in the browser for some reason. The idea that they think people would pay for it. I'd trust a paid subscription on youtube. Not that shit.

[OomPB]

Hope we get it live in South Africa.

That's rather subjective I'd say. 13:15 GMT if that helps.

I didn't realise it was on NZR+? Know the Ireland v New Zealand game is, in certain territories (and have you have to pay for it, naturally).

[Tim]

@Mr-Fish It hasn't appeared on the app or website, so who knows?

[Bovidae]

@Tim I've never used NZR+ so can't comment.

There is a link in this article to the NZR+ page so I assume it will be on that platform.

That's just the general info page of where you can watch the ABs outside of NZ, it's not specifically about this match.

If it's on NZR+ we have no way of knowing as like @Tim says there's no upcoming matches tab in the app.
