KEY POINTS:
The Black Ferns have made one change to their starting XV to play the Wallaroos in the second Test of their series in Canberra tomorrow.
Teresa Te Tamaki will join the starting line-up in the number 12 jersey replacing Halie Hurring who moves to the bench. Auckland's Monalisa Codling is recovering from a serious ankle injury sustained in the Black Ferns' first Test victory and will undergo a fitness test on Friday morning.
The Black Ferns are looking to make it 10 in a row having maintained their unbeaten record against Australia with a comprehensive 37-3 win in the first Test played on Tuesday night.
"Our set-pieces were outstanding with Olivia Coady having an excellent performance on the flank. She will get a second opportunity to start on Saturday," said Coach Dale Atkins.
"The Black Ferns want to perform at a higher standard in the second Test than what they achieved in the first match. We need to develop our phase attack and timing in the backline," said Atkins.
The match kicks off at Canberra's Viking Park at 3pm (5pm NZT).
