Aaron Cruden has been dropped from the All Blacks squad for the away leg of the Rugby Championship for disciplinary reasons.
Cruden's been left at home by All Blacks management after missing the flight to Argentina after a late night drinking session in Auckland.
Coach Steve Hansen says as a consequence he's been left home and will not join the squad for the tests against the Pumas and Springboks.
Hansen says it's certainly out of character for Cruden and he understands there has to be some punishment.
Steve Hansen says they're now sorting through who will replace Cruden on the tour.
