Wales have called up lock Ian Gough to their squad for the two-test tour of New Zealand after flanker Sam Warburton was ruled out with a fractured jaw. Warburton suffered the injury early in the 34-31 defeat by South Africa in Cardiff on Saturday. He played on before being withdrawn with a dead leg late in the game.
"A scan revealed a fracture to Sam's jaw which will prevent him from playing for at least a four-week period," Wales team physio Mark Davies said.
"He picked up the injury in the first half, but actually made no mention of it himself until after the final whistle."
