Beauden Barrett, Ardie Savea, TJ Perenara, Ngani Laumape and Vaea Fifita will all take their place in the run-on team at CET Arena in Palmerston North on Friday night.

Barrett and Savea were on All Blacks leave/rest during last weekend's 38-22 loss to the Crusaders, Perenara and Laumape came off the bench, while Fifita played 50 minutes for the development team on his way back to fitness after a hamstring injury.

The Hurricanes have added 182 All Blacks caps to their starting XV to take on the Brumbies.
