SENIOR NEW ZEALAND players Beauden Barrett and Codie Taylor were ruled out of next week’s Test against Ireland on Sunday because of head injuries suffered during their win over England.
Taylor was forced from the field in the sixth minute at Twickenham, with replacement Asafo Aumua playing the rest of the match. It will be the teams’ first meeting since the All Blacks beat Ireland in their World Cup quarter-final in Paris a year ago. Mercurial playmaker McKenzie started the first eight Tests of Robertson’s tenure but was moved to the bench for New Zealand’s final Rugby Championship Test against Australia in Wellington last month, with the more composed Barrett favoured.
