McCaw: All Blacks won't drop standards

New Zealand captain Richie McCaw is confident the wholesale changes to the team this week will not lead to a drop in standards in the second Test against Wales on Saturday.

Last weekend, following a hard first-half battle which saw them take a 15-9 lead into the break, the All Blacks – and Dan Carter in particular – hit top gear in the second period to out-class the Welsh and claim a 42-9 success at Carisbrook.
