New Zealand coach John Hart yesterday made four changes for his team's World Cup third-place play-off match against South Africa at the Millennium Stadium tomorrow evening.

Byron Kelleher has a calf injury and has lost his spot at scrum-half. He has been replaced by Justin Marshall.

Mark Hammett replaces Anton Oliver at hooker and Craig Dowd moves from tight head to loose head with Kees Meeuws called up.

Royce Willis comes in at number eight. Springbok coach Nick Mallett has also made four changes to his side.

Bobby Skinstad and wings Deon Kayser and Pieter Rossouw are all ruled out with injuries.

Their places are taken by Andre Vos, Breyton Paulse and Stefan Terblanche. Out-half Jannie de Beer asked to be overlooked and so Henry Honiball has a chance in the starting lineup in what will be his final Test.

New Zealand: J Wilson; T Umaga, C Cullen, A Ieremia, J Lomu; A Mehrtens, J Marshall; C Dowd, M Hammett, K Meeuws, N Maxwell, R Willis, R Thorne, J Kronfeld, T Randell (capt). Replacements: P Alatini, T Brown, R Duggan, D Mika, I Jones, C Hoeft, A Oliver.
