Prediction (Aaron Goile): Well, following last weekend’s staggering demolition, who on earth would know what will get thrown up this Saturday night? I’ll go out on a real limb and predict the Wallabies won’t be that bad again. The All Blacks, meanwhile, might also subconsciously not be quite as hyped for this one, with the Bledisloe now safely stored away. The Aussies may be thankful All Blacks coach Ian Foster has decided to rest their chief tormenters from the past two games – Caleb Clarke and Richie Mo’unga – though there will be several others in black keen to make a point, and the hosts will still be hindered by the absence of James O’Connor. Brisbane has been a tough hunting ground for New Zealand in recent years, though, having won just one of their past four tests at Suncorp Stadium dating back to 2011 – a one-point victory at that.
