Sam Cane to Start for All Blacks Against Italy

At 32, former captain Sam Cane will make his 104th appearance for the All Blacks, starting against Italy (on Saturday) after missing last week's match against France. TJ Perenara, also 32, will begin the game on the bench. The All Blacks have a perfect record against Italy since 1979, and head coach Scott Robertson aims to continue this streak. Beauden Barrett will start at fly-half, with Wallace Sititi, named World Rugby's breakthrough player, starting at flanker.
