League: Jones confirmed for the Kiwis

Kiwis coach Brian McClennan is confirming Stacey Jones will line up this weekend in the Tri-Series test against Great Britain. Reports out of the UK have suggested Jones is recovering from some sort of injury, but McClennan says the problem will not keep him out of the test, although the coach will not shed any more light on what that problem might be.

McClennan points out that most members of the Kiwis suffered bumps and bruises after a very physical encounter against Australia at Ericsson Stadium.

McClennan says travelling aggravates all sorts of niggles but there is nothing serious enough to prevent anyone from being selected for the team, bar Lance Hohaia, who is still recovering from his ankle injury.
