WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Australia could soon be ruing the fact that they twice let Tyrel Lomax slip from the grasp before he fell into the welcoming arms of their biggest rivals across the Tasman Sea.

The 22-year-old Australian-born tighthead prop, who grew up playing rugby league, was named in an extended All Blacks squad on Monday to play Japan next month, and will then link up with the Maori All Blacks for away matches against Brazil and Chile.
