    All Blacks attack coach Scott Hansen is urging his side's young halfbacks to walk towards the challenge of facing Antoine Dupont this weekend

    All Blacks attack coach Scott Hansen is urging his side's young halfbacks to walk towards the challenge of facing Antoine Dupont this weekend


    Dupont - widely regarded as the best halfback, if not the best player in world rugby - has only previously started against Aaron Smith in his meetings with the All Blacks.

    With Cortez Ratima and Cam Roigard having fewer than 20 tests between them, Hansen says Dupont is a player they should embrace playing against, not fear.



    Both sides will be named on Friday morning.
