Kiwis' centre Steve Matai has been cleared to resume training and will be available for next week's Four Nations league final should New Zealand qualify.
The 25-year-old has been sidelined since an eye injury forced him from the field in the Kiwis' win over France last week.
A scan has cleared Matai of any fracture around the eye area and a specialist has confirmed there is no significant damage to the eye itself.
The Kiwis could book a place in next week's Four Nations if they beat England in Huddersfield tomorrow morning.
