Photo: ReutersSonny Bill Williams is unlikely to recover from a hamstring injury in time to play for New Zealand against Argentina at the weekend, All Blacks assistant coach Ian Foster says. "It’s doubtful," Foster told reporters when asked about Williams' chances of running out against the Pumas in Buenos Aires. He’s feeling really good but we’ve got to make sure we’ve got full strength back into that leg." Foster said a final decision would be taken on Thursday when they name their team for the Rugby Championship opener. He was included in the travelling party for Argentina in part because of his vast experience.
