New Zealand face Georgia in Friday night's Pool C clash and it's safe to say the All-Blacks aren't goin to pull their punches against Georgia.
South Africa have already fallen foul of the so-called smaller nations in the tournament with defeat against Japan and Scotland were pushed quite a bit by an energetic USA team last weekend.
Always the pragmatist, Steve Hansen has gone for a nearly full strength squad against Georgia.
Dan Carter, Richie McCaw and Brodie Retallick all return to the starting XV.
There are 10 changes in total to the side that beat Namibia by 44 points. Nehe Milner Skudder drops out of the matchday squad in place of debutante Waisake Naholo, despite his man-of-the-match performance last time out.
