New Zealand will monitor Jerome Kaino’s knee injury ahead of the All Blacks‘ clash against France next weekend.

The powerful forward suffered a knee sprain in Saturday’s 31-22 victory over the Barbarians at Twickenham.

Head coach Steve Hansen said Kaino will be assessed in the coming days ahead of the trip to Paris to face Les Bleus.

Hansen also confirmed that versatile back Rieko Ioane was absent against the Barbarians as he had mumps, but is part of the travelling squad.

South Africa player ratings | 2024 Autumn Nations Series

Siya’s rating is a joke. He was everywhere and didn’t put a foot out of line. Played 80. Compared to Eben who only played 30 minutes?


Thomas du Toit’s rating also baffling.


But regardless, a pretty dominant showing all around.

Ireland should have won by at least another 14 pts. A lot of errors in.the first half...and Stockdale not passing for a certain try..unforgiveable.

Scotland's Sione Tuipulotu admits anger at Australian rugby

Rugby Australia is a joke. Meafou is playing for France and is the best young lock in the game. The treatment of Skelton is similar to these guys. A disgrace. They then multiply their stupidity by having silly OS player policies. Fire the lot of them and bring in some league managment.

David Campese takes back his Joe Schmidt coaching Australia criticism

Perhaps you need to change your tune and rather than claim that Kiwis are out to undermine Ozzy rugby, point the finger at your NSW bogey. Or are you the only one who can sort this out? Schmidt seems to be taking players who were underperforming and turning them into a much better functional team from where I am sitting. In many ways, he has made better progress with the Wallabies than Razor has with the ABs - which has been pretty disappointing imo.
