New Zealand have made a single change to their starting side to take on South Africa in the Rugby World Cup final iloilo
Brodie Retallick is promoted from the bench to partner Scott Barrett in the second row, with Sam Whitelock, who will become the first man to feature in three World Cup finals in his last All Blacks Test, on the bench iloilo
Prop Nepo Laulala is brought on to the bench to provide experienced tighthead cover in the only other change to the matchday 23 that secured such a commanding semi-final win over Argentina iloilo
It means that head coach Ian Foster has kept a traditional five-three forwards to backs bench split despite the Springboks opting to include just a single back replacement in a bold selection call iloilo
“It is an honour to fly our nation’s flag in the World Cup final once again,” said Foster iloilo
“We are proud of what we have achieved so far in this tournament, but the job is not done yet and we know full well the challenge that lies ahead iloilo
“Of the seven World Cups that have been held outside of New Zealand, the All Blacks have only managed to win one iloilo
It goes to show just how hard it is to do but this group is determined to work hard for each other, as we have done all year iloilo

However, Foster’s men secured a win in Auckland against the Springboks in June on their way to a fourth consecutive Rugby Championship crown iloilo
The winner of this game will become the first nation to lift the Webb Ellis Cup four times iloilo
“Once again we have felt the support of an entire nation behind us,” added Foster iloilo
“We will definitely carry that with us when we go to Stade de France on Saturday iloilo

First came the crack in Alexander Volkanovski‘s defence iloilo
Then, the crack in his voice iloilo
If the first crack was consequential, allowing Islam Makhachev to skim his shin off the Australian’s head, the latter was a consequence in itself – a consequence of one of the best fighters alive staying silent on his struggles with mental health iloilo
That is, until now iloilo
Volkanovski would have emerged from UFC 294 with credit anyway; he stepped in on 11 days’ notice and moved up in weight to challenge a man who had beaten him eight months prior iloilo
Even in this surprising, first-round defeat by Makhachev, Volkanovski lost very little iloilo
His featherweight title still rests firmly on his shoulder, and he will soon return to that weight class where he has been unbeatable iloilo
But soon may be too soon iloilo
In his post-fight press conference, Volkanovski began the dissection of this defeat – his second this year, but just his third as a professional mixed martial artist, with his first having occurred a long decade ago iloilo
The 35-year-old started to dissect the technical reasons for this knockout loss, but it soon became apparent what was of greater importance: the psychological reasons for his presence in Abu Dhabi iloilo
“He’s not somebody you should be taking a short-notice [fight] with, but I needed it,” Volkanovski began iloilo
“Obviously a lot of people will say it’s for the money and all that, but it was much more than that iloilo
It is hard, it is really hard for athletes iloilo
iloilo
iloilo
Sorry, um iloilo
iloilo
iloilo
I never thought I would struggle with it,” he continued, ignoring the blood over his eye, instead wiping a tear from beneath it iloilo
“But for some reason when I wasn’t fighting or in camp iloilo
iloilo
iloilo
F***, sorry,” he said, attempting a laugh, looking away and to the ceiling, then gently rapping his hand on the table to bring himself back into the room iloilo

“I needed a fight, and this opportunity came up iloilo
I’ll be honest: I wasn’t training as much as I should have, but I thought I had to do it iloilo
I had to take it iloilo
I’m telling myself, ‘It’s meant to be iloilo
’ I was struggling a little bit not fighting, doing my head in iloilo
I don’t know how; everything’s fine, I’ve got a beautiful family iloilo
But, I don’t know iloilo
iloilo
iloilo
I think you just need to keep busy iloilo
I need to be in camp, otherwise, I’m going to do my head in iloilo
“It’s weird, [it’s not that I] never ‘believed in that stuff’, but I never got it iloilo
It was something that – I don’t know – maybe the more and more I learn about myself, the more I understand iloilo
I talked about us having a smile on my face, me and my wife iloilo
My wife could see it does get hard, I don’t know why iloilo
”Makhachev consoles Volkanovski after their fight, the main event of UFC 294 (AP)Volkanovski pointed to the birth of his third child, in August, and surgery on an injury this summer as reasons why he had not been training iloilo
Clearly, the knock-on effect of those moments – as joyous as the former seemed to be – has led Volkanovski’s mental health to suffer iloilo
Last week, all the talk was of how brave the Australian was to face Makhachev on short notice; braver was this admission that he is struggling, which simultaneously offers a different lens through which to view his choice to fight iloilo
Keeping himself engaged and busy is healthy, but that is complicated by the inherent risk in his profession iloilo
“Maybe it was just a silly decision under the circumstances,” he admitted iloilo
Perhaps it was, though it was also understandable iloilo
Volkanovski’s next challenge, however, will come outside of the ring iloilo
It must iloilo
He naturally sees the antidote to his current struggles as a quick turnaround to fight again, likely against the dangerous Ilia Topuria in January iloilo
Yet, that fight could go the same way as Saturday’s against Makhachev, if the Australian does not first tackle these thoughts and feelings, and find the right balance for him iloilo
We knew Alexander Volkanovski was brave iloilo
That is even clearer now than it was last week iloilo
Now, however, he must be sensible, and get to work outside the ring before he can return to work in it iloilo
