Sonny Bill Williams says there's fierce but healthy competition within the squad for places in the 22 to play Australia in Sunday's World Cup semi-final at Eden Park.
Williams, who acquitted himself surprisingly well on the wing in the quarter-final against Argentina, says everyone wants to be involved in such a huge occasion.
And lock Brad Thorn described the rivalry between the teams as "cheeky" and "fun", saying they love the challenges of Trans-Tasman contests and it's going to be an intense game.
