Dragons RFC ace Aaron Wainwright has been withdrawn from the Wales XV to face New Zealand this weekend, due to a hip injury.
Taine Plumtree will start at No. 8 and the uncapped Morgan Morse joins the Wales replacements in the number 20 jersey.
Head coach Steve Tandy said: "We’ve been managing Aaron’s training load this week. Following assessment again today we have taken the decision to remove him from playing on Saturday."
We wish Aaron well with his recovery.
