Midfielder Ryan Crotty and hooker Codie Taylor, not selected for the All Blacks last weekend due to head knocks, have been cleared to play for Canterbury in the Mitre 10 Cup.
The pair, plus lock Luke Romano, will be available for their team's match against Northland in Whangarei on Saturday.
With big victories over Auckland and Tasman, Canterbury are looking ominous as they attempt to defend their premiership title.
With the All Blacks not assembling in Hamilton until Sunday for their test against Argentina at Waikato Stadium, several other players have been released to their provinces.
Otago hooker Liam Coltman, Taranaki midfielder Seta Tamanivalu and Waikato first-five Damian McKenzie will reassemble with the All Blacks as injury cover, with North Harbour hooker James Parsons and Auckland outside back Rieko Ioane available to play for their provinces.
