Sam Cane is set to make his debut for the All Blacks after being named in the reserves for the second rugby test against Ireland this Saturday.

The 20-year-old Chiefs flanker gets his chance after putting up a promising Super Rugby performance so far this year.

Only one change has been made to the side that beat Wales last week with Adam Thomson replacing the injured Victor Vito.

New Zealand will tackle Ireland at 7:35pm on Saturday.

In other test matches this weekend, Australia will host Wales at 10pm this Saturday.

On Sunday England meets South Africa at 3am and Argentina faces France at 9:10am.
