All Blacks coach Scott Robertson has moved Damian McKenzie on from No.10 as he searches for answers to New Zealand's scratchy form under his tenure.
Beauden Barrett will start from the pivotal position on Saturday when the All Blacks take on the Wallabies, the Bledisloe Cup already secured for a 22nd straight year.

New Zealand will be packed with experience at Wellington's Sky Stadium, with all but one of the run-on team - blindside flanker Wallace Sititi - with at least 20 Tests.
Former captain Sam Cane, who will earn his 100th cap, and hometown hero TJ Perenara, back in the XV for Cortez Ratima, will make their last international appearances in New Zealand.
Both are off to play club rugby in Japan next season, making them ineligible to wear a black shirt.
Cane is the 13th player to play 100 games for the All Blacks.
“This will be a particularly special night for Sam and TJ and the boys will put in a performance that honours their contribution to this team," coach Scott Robertson said.
"Sam will be joining an exclusive club of All Black centurions, which is testament to his fortitude and work ethic.
"As a Wellington man and the most-capped Hurricane of all time, we know that TJ is a crowd favourite in the capital and we look forward to him expressing himself on the field in front of friends and whānau at home.”
The All Blacks defeated Australia 31-28 last Saturday in Sydney and are firm favourites to back up their road win with a home success given the Wallabies have not beaten the Kiwis in New Zealand since 2001.
However, they cannot win the Rugby Championship after an inconsistent run in the southern hemisphere championship.
Robertson's side has lost twice to South Africa and a home Test to Argentina to sit third in the standings - above only Australia.
"We are excited about the opportunity this week to put in a complete performance against the Wallabies in Wellington," the coach added.
All Blacks (1-15): Ethan de Groot, Codie Taylor, Tyrel Lomax, Scott Barrett (capt), Tupou Vaa'i, Wallace Sititi, Sam Cane, Ardie Savea, TJ Perenara, Beauden Barrett, Caleb Clarke, Anton Lienert-Brown, Rieko Ioane, Sevu Reece, Will Jordan.
Reserves: Asafo Aumua, Tamaiti Williams, Pasilio Tosi, Patrick Tuipulotu, Luke Jacobson, Cortez Ratima, Damian McKenzie, David Havili.
