New Zealand's George Moala ruled out for remainder of tour
Sunday 6 November 2016 22:54, UK
George Moala will miss the rest of New Zealand's northern hemisphere tour with an elbow injury.
The Auckland centre suffered a potentially-serious tendon injury during the 40-29 defeat by Ireland on Saturday which ended their 18-game winning streak.
Moala scored their opening try but had to be replaced by Codie Taylor with 10 minutes remaining.
Fellow centre Ryan Crotty was also hurt in the game at Soldier Field in Chicago but he is staying with the squad for further assessment on a hamstring strain - he lasted only 25 minutes before coming off.
Seta Tamanivalu, who played for the Barbarians in their 31-31 draw against South Africa at Wembley, will replace Moala, the All Blacks said.
After suffering their first-ever loss to Ireland in the 111-year history of clashes between the two teams, New Zealand face further Tests against Italy, Ireland and France.
