Rennie's Big Changes Ahead of Italy | Auckland News
Description
Dave Rennie’s All Blacks are shaking things up with 11 major lineup changes ahead of the Italy clash, but the coach remains bullish—keeping key combos intact like Jordan and McKenzie while giving fresh faces like Billy Proctor and debutant Anton Segner a shot. Rennie’s eye is on Ruben Love’s form at first-five and Luke Jacobson’s breakout at openside, while also stressing the need to fix defensive line speed. Italy? Not to be underestimated—Rennie warns they’ve learned from Japan’s upset and pack a dangerous backline with Menoncello and Garbisi. Even with Wellington’s recent history against the All Blacks, Rennie knows this won’t be easy.
