Last chance saloon for Lomu in Waikato

JONAH LOMU has just one game left to force his way into the All Black World Cup squad after being ruled out of Wellington’s NPC opener against Southland over the weekend.

Lomu was omitted on Thursday after failing to train on Tuesday or Wednesday because of tight leg muscles.

All Black doctor John Mayhew said there was nothing sinister in the decision, saying Lomu’s kidney dialysis treatment continued to go to plan.
