Hagen Hopkins/Getty Images All Blacks coach Ian Foster has come under pressure after a series of poor test results.

Rugby league rugby player Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is set to earn his first All Blacks cap after being named in the reserves. David Havili, Will Jordan, Sam Whitelock and Nepo Laulala, who did not play in the second test, entered the run-on team. There were no specialist locks on the bench with Scott Barrett, who returned to the left flank to allow Whitelock to start, providing cover. Dane Coles and Akira Ioane were added to the bench after being ignored for the first two tests. Coach Ian Foster reacted to the All Blacks’ first loss to Ireland in New Zealand by bringing in some new faces and making six position changes to his side for the tie in Wellington on Saturday night. Four newcomers have been added to the team that will start at Sky Stadium, with David Havili one of the most notable additions in fifth-eighth. He replaced Quinn Tupaea.
