Rugby: Stormin' Norman's back

Centre Norman Berryman celebrated his recall to the New Zealand A side by scoring two tries in Northland's 45-0 romp over Bay of Plenty in a National Provincial Championship warm-up match in Whangarei yesterday.

The Canterbury Crusaders star was an original selection in Ross Cooper's New Zealand A squad but had to drop out because of rib injuries.

He replaces Auckland's Adrian Cashmore, who has withdrawn to rest a knee injury. New Zealand A play the Australian Barbarians in Whangarei on Sunday.
