    Disappointment for former Crusaders halfback Willi Heinz

    Disappointment for former Crusaders halfback Willi Heinz


    He's missed the chance to play a World Cup final for England, after injuring his hamstring in the semi-final win over the All Blacks.

    Coach Eddie Jones says Heinz is gutted.



    Saracens halfback Ben Spencer's been called up as a Stephen Donald-like replacement, although Jones says he hasn't been whitebaiting recently and they'll provide a jersey that fits.
