Both sides have welcomed back players from injury breaks. Ben Alexander has returned in the Australian front row and Drew Mitchell has resumed on the wing. Their return will strengthen Australia. For New Zealand, first five-eighths Daniel Carter is returning after ankle surgery that forced him out of the last Bledisloe Cup-Tri Nations match.

Both sides have been out of action since they completed the Tri Nations, the last game of which saw the All Blacks get home late in the game for the win. Several of the All Blacks have been able to keep their match fitness up with games in the ITM Cup although Test match rugby is a significant step up from that. However, preparations have been intense for both sides as part of their build-up for their respective northern tours and there should be no lack of intensity in the game.
Clearly the battle is going to be on again upfront and Australia will be heartened by the return of prop Ben Alexander and he should strengthen the tight core. But the most obvious area of contest will be in the loose where David Pocock, the big performer for Australia throughout the season, will be pitting himself against Richie McCaw. The All Blacks captain has rested since the end of the Tri Nations but said he couldn't wait to resume so the contest will be lively again. All Black Jerome Kaino was one of the unsung heroes of the side's Tri Nations efforts and he will have a might battle with Australian captain Rocky Elsom in the tight-loose play. Quade Cooper has been an outstanding performer in his side's rejuvenation and he, too, faces a battle with a champion, albeit one returning from injury, Dan Carter. The mid-field battle will again be significant as Matt Giteau and Adam Ashley-Cooper front Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith. And at the back of both teams are two champions, Kurtley Beale for Australia and Mils Muliaina for New Zealand.
