Have the All Black selectors swung the axe or given chances for redemption?

That's the big question 12 hours out from the announcement of the side for the deciding Bledisloe Cup test in Auckland.

Rugby Editor Nigel Yalden says two changes will be forced by injury and suspension.

He says Anton Lienert-Brown will shift to centre for the injured Jack Goodhue, with Sonny Bill Williams odds on to return at second five.

Scott Barrett's ban will hand Patrick Tuipulotu another test start while Jackson Hemopo's extra locking experience should see him included on the bench ahead of Vaea Fifita.

Judging by the handshakes at training, George Bridge is going to get his first test start, but on which wing given both Ben Smith and Rieko Ioane have been nowhere near their best in recent outings.
