Scrum half Cam Roigard has overcome a major injury to win a place in the 36-strong All Blacks squad named Monday to play Autumn test matches against Japan, England, Ireland, France and Italy.

Roigard played for Counties Manukau in New Zealand's National Provincial Championship on Saturday in his first appearance since March when he suffered a knee injury while playing for the Hurricanes in Super Rugby. He took the field as a replacement and scored two tries.
