    Jorja Miller's Black Ferns 15s test debut will wait another week

    Jorja Miller's Black Ferns 15s test debut will wait another week


    The world sevens player of the year has been left out for Saturday's Pacific Four Championship test against Canada in Christchurch.

    Coach Allan Bunting's also resisted bringing in fellow converts Stacey Waaka and Risi Pouri-Lane who joined the squad on Sunday.

    Portia Woodman-Wickliffe returns as one of three changes to the run-on side that beat Australia.

    She'll start on the right wing, Ayesha Leti-I'iga shifts to the left and Katelyn Vaha'akolo drops out.

    Amy Rule starts at tighthead prop and Liana Mikaele Tu'u is at number eight.
