Lions: Henry keeps everyone guessing

Lions coach Graham Henry has delayed naming his team for the second Test against Australia in Melbourne until Friday.

Henry had been expected to reveal his starting line-up today, but announced a 27-man squad instead.

The large contingent includes all 22 players on duty for the first Test in Brisbane last weekend.

There are five uncapped Test Lions in the squad - Ben Cohen, Darren Morris, Dorian West, David Wallace, and Martyn Williams.

Neil Back is in the squad after missing out in Brisbane because of a rib injury, while the Lions hope that full-back Matt Perry will make it.

Perry went off at half-time with a groin muscle injury last Saturday, and has so far been unable to train this week.
