Barrett to counter England's strong ball carrying and to pinch lineout, I reckon. Then Cane to up the tempo in the second half.
Tuilagi to get more change out of the midfield at 13 than he does at 12 is a good move. But both of the NZ centres are hard as nails, so it's all relative!
Eddie's gameplan to go big in the first 40 and then hold on. Expect funny lineouts from England to try to nullify their multitude of world-class jumpers.
I predict NZ by a converted score, but I hope not.

Strong choices on both sides: Cane goes on the bench, Hansen places Barett on backrow (would be interesting to know why) ; Jones install back Ford-Farell-Tuilagi and slade goes back to the bench.
Apparently Slade did not entirely convince jones! They have pretty similar bench combination on both sides. Looking forward to the game
