British and Irish Lions

They include three new faces in the forwards and four in the backs from the team that made it two wins out of two in the competition against South Africa at the weekend.

Jerry Collins, Keven Mealamu and Tony Woodcock come in up front, while Aaron Mauger starts at centre, Byron Kelleher replaces Piri Weepu at scrum-half, and Rico Gear and Joe Rokocoko return on the wings.

Australia name their starting line-up on Wednesday, while victory for the All Blacks will see them retain the Bledisloe Cup.

Team: Leon MacDonald; Rico Gear, Mils Muliaina, Aaron Mauger, Joe Rokocoko; Daniel Carter, Byron Kelleher; Tony Woodcock, Keven Mealamu, Carl Hayman, Chris Jack, Ali Williams, Jerry Collins, Richie McCaw (capt), Rodney So'oialo.

Reserves: Isaia Toeava, Luke McAlister, Jimmy Cowan, Chris Masoe, Jason Eaton, Greg Somerville, Andrew Hore.

British & Irish Lions captain Sam Warburton says he's been struck by the level of professionalism and dedication within the squad as they prepare to head to Hong Kong and Australia.

Alex Cuthbert admits the prospect of touring with The British & Irish Lions seemed like a distant dream when the squad were preparing for their most recent adventure four years ago.

Lions skipper Sam Warburton says the lessons he and his Welsh colleagues learnt in Australia last summer will stand them in good stead for their return visit with Britain and Ireland's elite next month.
