Blues prop Charlie Faumuina is the only uncapped player named in the All Blacks squad for the upcoming Rugby Championship. Faumuina was included in the squad for the June tests but was ruled out through injury. Cory Jane has made his return to the squad, while Zac Guildford and Ben Tameifuna have both been left out. Conrad Smith has been named, however he'll miss the start of the Rugby Championship and selectors have confirmed Sonny Bill Williams is his likely replacement.
