All Blacks call up Moody for Crockett in RWC semis

JOE Moody will start in place of injured loosehead prop Wyatt Crockett in New Zealand’s only change for the Rugby World Cup semifinal against South Africa tomorrow.

Moody was only called into the squad at the end of New Zealand’s pool-stage campaign after a tournament-ending injury to Tony Woodcock. Now, with Crockett sustaining a groin injury, he has been cast into a World Cup semifinal. Nehe Milner-Skudder has recovered from a shoulder injury sustained during the 62-13 win over France in the quarterfinals and took his place on the right wing in the team named yesterday. Richie McCaw will set a RWC record in captaining his side for the 12th time in the competition.
