Rieko Ioane is set to miss the All Blacks’ match against Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.

The 20-year-old wing, who has been nominated for the World Rugby Player of the Year award, sustained a shoulder injury during his side’s 22-17 win against Scotland at Murrayfield.

‘It doesn’t look like he’s going to be right for Saturday,’ said All Blacks coach Steve Hansen. ‘It’s quite weak, so he’s probably not going to be available.

‘He’s a rookie and Player of the Year nominee for a reason. He’s played really, really well. But it’s an exciting challenge for somebody to have to step up and do that job.’
