Trio set for All Blacks debuts
Israel Dagg, Benson Stanley and Ben Franks will make their New Zealand Test debuts against Ireland on Saturday after being named in a new-look starting line-up for the one-off match in New Plymouth.
Franks, who played for the All Blacks against Munster on the end-of-year tour in 2008, will scrum down with his older brother and fellow prop Owen in the front row.
