Dan and Woody Out of Ireland Game!

The All Blacks will be without two of their centurions for their game against Ireland this Saturday.

Dan Carter and Tony Woodcock limped from the field midway through last Saturday's brutal test against England, meaning that Steve Hansen will be without two of his most experienced players for the All Blacks' last hurdle in their quest to finish the season unbeaten and 100%.

It's not really a shock and one could say that Dan and Tony were never going to feature against the Irish with Beauden Barrett and Jeffery Toomaga-Allen set for a chance to come off the bench or even start if they're lucky.

Here's the possible team to face Ireland - it should be a strong one even without 200 odd caps taken from the starting lineup and bench. Expect quite a few changes in the forwards given the brutal encounter the pack faced last week and the long seasons the likes of Kieran Read, Brodie Retallick, etc. have had.
