WELLINGTON - Winger Sitiveni Sivivatu has replaced Scott Hamilton in the All Blacks' Tri-Nations rugby squad, although he won't be playing in Saturday's test against Australia in Auckland.
All Blacks management said today that Waikato winger Sivivatu had joined the squad in place of Cantabrian Hamilton in the only change to the 30-man selection that has won their first three tests.
However, Sivivatu has also been cleared to play for his province in Saturday's Air New Zealand Cup game against Otago, ruling him out of the test at Eden Park.
Otago first five-eighth Nick Evans will join the All Blacks squad tomorrow as cover for North Harbour's Luke McAlister, who injured his jaw in Saturday's Air New Zealand Cup game against Bay of Plenty.
