All Blacks head coach Dave Rennie has named a 36-man squad for the Nations Championship, confirming that fly-half Richie Mo'unga is included despite dealing with a calf tear. Mo'unga will miss the opening Test against Scotland at Murrayfield but is expected to return for the subsequent fixture against Wales as he continues his rehabilitation.
Rennie also provided fitness updates on several other squad members, noting that Patrick Tuipulotu is running fully but was omitted from the squad. Meanwhile, prop Tyrel Lomax was left out due to an ongoing neck issue, and Damian McKenzie and Beauden Barrett are expected to see more playing time as the team's 10-15 combination.
