Injuries have forced two changes within the New Zealand team for the final round of the rugby sevens world series in Scotland this weekend.
Auckland' Edwin Cocker and Willie Rickards, of Southland have been named in place of regular captain DJ Forbes and Lote Raikabula, who have been ruled out with injury.
Cocker makes his return to the team after missing the last four tournaments because of a broken leg suffered in the Wellington tournament in February.
New Zealand have endured a miserable run this season, with the reigning world championship not having won any of the previous seven rounds.
They lost to England in London last weekend and head to Edinburgh in fourth place on the standings, a distant 36 points behind leaders South Africa.
New Zealand's pool opponents in Scotland are the United States, France and South Africa.
The tournament starts on Saturday night (NZT).
