"Rotation? No way Jose. Not when you have lost the last test against the Springboks and two out of five internationals already this season.
"It is time to park the theory that players struggled to put together three performances in succession. Too bad.
"This is judgement time, a crucial phase of the All Blacks' season as they seek some inroads in defence of their Tri-Nations title."
