England have been dealt a blow on the eve of their second rugby union Test against New Zealand after George Furbank was ruled out of the Auckland showdown by a back injury.
Furbank was singled out as the tourists' dangerman by opposite number Stephen Perofeta earlier in the week but his late injury setback means his cutting edge in attack will be missing at Eden Park.

The Northampton No.15 was one of England's best performers in the 16-15 loss in Dunedin last week and would have been one of the first names on Steve Borthwick's teamsheet.
Freddie Steward replaces Furbank at fullback in his first appearance for England since February 10, when he started against Wales in the Six Nations.
Leicester Tigers' Steward was a foundation stone of England's backline as he quickly compiled 33 caps, but his expertise under the high ball and command of the backfield have made way for a new emphasis on attack.
Steward has trained throughout the summer tour but Saturday's second and final Test against the All Blacks will be his first appearance since May 18 when Leicester defeated Exeter.
"It is massively disappointing for George, he has been brilliant in the way he has been playing this season," England scrum coach Tom Harrison told reporters.
"But on a brighter note we have got depth in that position and a world class player in Freddie Steward coming in.
"Wherever we go, we play to our strengths. I don't think it changes our approach too much.
"Freddie has been working hard on the things that George has been good at and George has been working hard on the things that Freddie is good at, so when moments like this happen players are always ready to step into the plan.
New Zealand are unbeaten at Eden Park in 50 Tests going back to 1994, while England have not beaten the All Blacks in their own backyard since 2003.
