    The return of experience in Tyrel Lomax and Anton Lienert-Brown to the All Blacks run-on side counters an experimental-looking starting XV for the third test against France in Hamilton


    Both players are back from injury after missing the first two matches of the series, while Lienert-Brown's collarbone injury has kept him out since late April.

    Coach Scott Robertson says their return balances the eight other changes to the run-on side.
