All Blacks v Australia: Former captain claims Damian McKenzie will get other chances

One former All Blacks captain claims Scott Robertson will want to try out new combinations in future matches.

The side set to play against the Wallabies in Wellington has been revealed - with Beauden Barrett taking on the No 10 jersey, Anton Lienert-Brown replacing Jordie Barrett and TJ Perenara starting his final match in the No 9 jersey.

Sir Wayne 'Buck' Shelford says Damian McKenzie - who got dropped down to the bench - hasn't lost his chance just yet.

"Take test match rugby - you just don't have as much time. He has time when he plays for the Chiefs - he's just got to get used to reacting fast enough."
