All Blacks winger Sevu Reece is out to prove he belongs in All Blacks.
He is relishing the chance to start a Test match on home soil, named to wear the number 14 jersey tomorrow night in the Bledisloe Cup decider against the Wallabies at Eden Park.
Reece will have a chance to stake his claim for the All Blacks' right wing berth, looking to prove he belongs at Test level.
Reece won't be alone out on the park tomorrow night, with Crusaders teammate George Bridge also getting his first home Test match, starting on the left in place of Rieko Ioane, while Richie Mo'unga will steer the ship at first‑five.
Reece is thankful to have his club teammates sharing the special moment with him.
Tomorrow night will cap an incredible year for Reece, having been in doubt for Super Rugby after being axed by the Chiefs, going on to win the competition with the Crusaders, finishing as the top try scorer.
That hot form irresistible for coach Steve Hansen, rewarding Reece with Test selection.
The All Blacks will face the Wallabies in the Bledisloe Cup decider at 7.35pm tomorrow at Auckland's Eden Park.
