WELLINGTON (Reuters) - New Zealand hooker Dane Coles has been ruled out of the Rugby Championship opener against Australia after suffering a head knock in a warmup match on Friday.

Coles had only recently returned to rugby after having a season mired by injury, including concussion symptoms that kept him out of action for around four months.
