Cooper dropped for Wallabies as All Blacks chase record

Australia have dropped Quade Cooper to the bench as they go in search of a first victory over the All Blacks at Eden Park since 1986.
Rookie back Reece Hodge will move from the left wing to play at inside centre with Bernard Foley shifting to fly-half, a move that was predicted earlier this week by Steve Hansen.
Wallabies head coach Michael Cheika decided to delay naming his side for the Bledisloe Cup match by 24-hours after a meeting with his coaching staff.
Speaking about Hansen's prediction, Cheika joked: “He must have known somehow. I'm not quite sure how because the bug is gone.”
There is two changes to the Wallabies starting line-up with Henry Speight taking Hodge's vacant spot on the wing and Nick Phipps starting at scum-half now that Will Genia has returned to play in France.
Cheika has also shaken up his bench with David Pocock returning from injury, the flanker is joined by Rob Simmons, Nick Frisby and Sefa Naivalu.
“Testing new ideas on the bigger stage, some people might not think is the right time but I think that's the place you see if it's really something that can work in the future,” he said.
New Zealand have already secured the Rugby Championship and the Bledisloe Cup and another defeat for the Wallabies would mean a Tier One world-record 18th straight win for the All Blacks.
Hansen has made one change to his team's starting line-up with Julian Savea replacing Waisake Naholo on the left wing.
On the bench Aaron Cruden and Malakai Fekitoa come in for Lima Sopoaga and George Moala who drop out of the squad following the All Blacks largest ever test victory over South Africa.
