Tour over for Flynn
Hooker Corey Flynn has been ruled out of New Zealand's remaining Test matches against Wales and England.
Flynn suffered a broken left arm during the All Blacks' 18-16 victory over Munster in Limerick on Thursday night.
He will be replaced on the bench against Wales this weekend by Hikawera Elliott, although a decision on whether to summon a tour replacement will be made after the game in Cardiff.
Woodcock gets green light
New Zealand prop Tony Woodcock has been given the all-clear to play against Wales on Saturday after avoiding a ban in his disciplinary hearing in Dublin.
Woodcock was cited for striking an opponent with his hand during the 22-3 win against Ireland last weekend.
He admitted committing an act of foul play, but IRB official Professor Lorne Crerer felt the offence did not deserve a red card and no sanction was imposed.
Henry: No grand slam talk
New Zealand boss Graham Henry insists talk of a successful grand slam tour remains off the All Blacks radar.
Only Wales and England stand between Henry's men and a European clean sweep following emphatic victories over Scotland and Ireland.
He said: "We will talk about the grand slam after England, if it's a reality. If things happen because we play decent rugby, then that is a bonus."
