JAMIE GEORGE is ready to introduce the All Blacks to his England team tomorrow after yet another Kiwi snub in Dunedin.
New Zealand winger Sevu Reece claimed he did not know much about opposite number Immanuel Feyi-Waboso ahead of the first Test when he was quizzed yesterday.
Exeter wide man Feyi-Waboso (circled) is one of the hottest properties in rugby, but Reece (below) insisted he was not fretting about his threat.
George, 33, went around this block seven years ago with the Lions when most New Zealand stars feigned ignorance about their opponents ahead of an epic drawn series.
They knew all about Warren Gatland's side soon enough despite the tourists losing the opener, and hooker George is aiming to give the hosts another wake-up call.
He said: "I don't know whether there are any mind games in what they are saying. I know that that was certainly said in 2017 on the Lions tour.
