Former All Blacks captain Kieran Read believes the All Blacks have a "great" chance of winning this year's World Cup, but he says they're not the favourites to take the title in France.
The All Blacks take on Australia in the second Bledisloe Cup test in Dunedin this weekend, though the match is a dead rubber with the hosts having already retained the title and the Rugby Championship following three straight wins to start 2023.
It is however the last chance for players to impress before coach Ian Foster names his Rugby World Cup squad on Monday in Napier.
Read spoke to RNZ's rugby reporter Joe Porter about his picks for the squad, who he thinks will win the World Cup and what he's made of the All Blacks early season form.
