2021 Challenges

All Blacks set challenges for 2021

"We want to get our performance at a consistent level that we can really challenge and be the number one team in the world."

 

The first step towards reclaiming a title they have not held for almost two years has been taken.

Named in Auckland on Monday night, the first All Blacks squad of 2021 includes 36 names.

A big but necessary number, according to Foster.

"We've got four tests in a row in September, we could have up to five in a row in November and we've just come off a big Super Rugby competition.
