Double Injury blow for the All Blacks ahead of Bedisloe Cup

Ruben Love and Patrick Tuipulotu have both been ruled out of the upcoming Tests against the Wallabies, dealing Dave Rennie another selection setback.

Love is sidelined with an ankle ligament injury, with further assessments underway to determine his recovery timeline, while Tuipulotu faces an estimated 4–6 weeks of rehabilitation after suffering a calf strain.

With two more players unavailable, Rennie will have some important selection decisions to make ahead of the opening Test.
