Brian McClennan makes changes

Kiwi's winger Francis Meli will play no part in this weeks Test against Great Britain after picking up a leg injury playing for ESL club, St Helens.
The 27-year-old was injured in the later stages of Saints' victory over Salford and was stretchered the field.

"We'll know more when he has a scan and we're hoping we're looking at a few weeks and not the season," said St Helens coach Daniel Anderson.

Jason Cayless and Vinnie Anderson are also doubtful starters for New Zealand.

The Saint Helens duo also picked up knocks playing this morning, leaving New Zealand coach Brian McClennan with a headache.

The Test takes place at St Helens' Knowsley Road home and Saints expected to have as many as 12 players in action.

Bradford winger Lesley Vainikolo, who was largely dormant in the early part of the season when Noble was in charge of the Bulls, is running into form just in time to cause trouble for Britain at St Helens in two days time.

The powerhouse runner, who topped the Super League scoring chart in 2004 with a record-breaking 36 tries, has been plagued by niggling injuries but he was back to his best against Huddersfield on Friday, scoring two tries in the Bulls' 42-16 win.

Vainikolo was a frustrated spectator 12,000 miles away when the Kiwis ended Australia's world domination with a 24-0 humiliation of the Kangaroos at Elland Road last November in the Tri-Nations final, but he hopes to help them defend their crown later this year.
