OPINION: You only need to cast your minds back to the last time Ireland toured New Zealand to know just what an Ireland bounceback looks like.
Okay, it was 2012, so you'll need to cast it back 10 years, but that freezing (sub zero during the match) night in Christchurch produced a display that so nearly ended Ireland's drought on New Zealand soil.
After a good old-fashioned pasting the week before, where - like the 2022 side - they conceded 42 points at Eden Park, Ireland came within a wobbly Dan Carter drop goal of avoiding defeat in the second test.
That night saw now-captain Sam Cane's debut, while players like Aaron Smith, Brodie Rettallick, Beauden Barrett and Sam Whitelock were all there or in the squad.
A decade ago, they were still chasing their first elusive win, but having now beaten the All Blacks three times, the tourists should have more fight in them, especially under the roof at Dunedin.
With a chance to clinch the series this weekend, expect coach Ian Foster to roll out a full-strength side once again.
There are players in the 36-man All Blacks squad that Foster will want to have a look at during the series and clinching the series with a game to spare would give him the perfect chance to do that.
Scott Barrett was an intriguing selection at blindside flanker last week, but put in a more-than-solid showing to warrant another look.
With David Havili now recovered from his COVID-19 infection, he deserves the chance to stake a claim on the No.12 jersey. His Super Rugby form, particularly towards the latter end, was instrumental in the Crusaders' title run and he deserves the opportunity to transfer that into the black jersey.
Quinn Tupaea again showed he's more than up to test rugby at Eden Park, but the midfield remains a point of contention and Havili deserves the chance. Tupaea also deserves another test, so minutes off the bench for him.
Cane initially suggested Will Jordan would be unavailable until the third test in Wellington, after also going down with COVID last week, but news out of the camp is that he's back training with the group and feeling okay.
If that is the case, he's one of the first names on the team sheet. If he hasn't quite recovered enough, he comes out and Sevu Reece comes in.
I'd also like to see Folau Fakatava given the chance off the bench this week.
That's not a slight against Finlay Christie, who was more than handy when replacing Aaron Smith in the first test, but a guaranteed dry night in front of his home (Super Rugby) crowd would be a good way to introduce Fakatava to test rugby.
A handful of very good players await their chance in the black jersey and if the All Blacks can head to Wellington already 2-0 up, almost all of them will.
But for this weekend's test, experimentation must wait, with the focus on avoiding a repeat of 2012, when the All Blacks so nearly bottled it.
