    Scott Barrett has declared himself ready to go as he slots straight back into the All Blacks' starting side

    Scott Barrett has declared himself ready to go as he slots straight back into the All Blacks' starting side


    The New Zealand captain missed the Bledisloe Cup win at Eden Park with a shoulder injury, but will pack down with Fabian Holland in tonight's rematch in Perth.

    Barrett says there's no lingering issues with his shoulder.



    Holland's a late inclusion to replace Tupou Vaa'i - who's out with a knee injury.

    Live commentary tonight from 10:45pm on Newstalk ZB, Gold Sport and iHeart Radio.
