All Blacks Suffer Blow as Perenara Ruled Out of 2nd Test vs England

TJ Perenara, the All Blacks' experienced scrumhalf, will miss the second test against England in Auckland this weekend due to an injury sustained in the opening match of the series. Perenara, playing his first test since 2022, was injured when teammate Scott Barrett fell on his leg during a ruck. The 32-year-old had to be replaced at halftime of New Zealand's 16-15 victory in Dunedin. Crusaders youngster Noah Hotham has been called up to replace Perenara in the squad led by coach Scott Robertson.
