New-look New Zealand take on Fiji in Lions warm-up

WINGER Sitivei Sivivatu, hooker Derren Witcombe and lock James Ryan will make their test debuts for New Zealand against Fiji on Friday after the trio were confirmed as starters in a new-look All Blacks side.

Sivivatu, who scored two tries in the Possibles victory over the Probables in the All Blacks trial last Friday, replaces his cousin Joe Rokocoko on the left wing for the one-off test.

Rokocoko had a poor Super 12 season and was released by the All Blacks selectors to play for the New Zealand Sevens side to try to regain the confidence and form that have brought him 27 tries in 23 internationals.
