Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd won’t be resting any All Blacks ahead of his team’s clash with the Reds in Brisbane this Sunday.

Boyd has kept the line-up almost identical to that which faced the Waratahs last week, however, a calf injury to Nehe Milner-Skudder has left him out of selection contention, making way for James Marshall at fullback.

Matt Proctor also comes back into the starting line-up, with Cory Jane moving to the bench.

Victor Vito (calf), Dane Coles (elbow), and Blade Thomson (concussion), remain on the injury list.

Hurricanes’ flyhalf Beauden Barrett needs two points to surpass David Holwell’s record of 676, and become the team’s all-time leading point-scorer.
