Austin Healey will start on the wing for the first time for England in tomorrow's match against New Zealand at Twickenham, and coach Clive Woodward believes he will have a key part to play.

Healey was England's scrumhalf in Cardiff last March but has come on as a wing substitute in England's recent three Tests against the top teams of the southern hemisphere.

Phil Larder, England's new adviser from rugby league, believes Healey to be one of the two best tacklers in the squad as well as having pace, and Woodward has taken heed.

Healey for John Bentley is the only form change compared with the team that lost by a record score to South Africa at Twickenham last weekend.

David Rees switches back to the right-wing - Healey is on the left - giving the Sale player a second experience of tackling Jonah Lomu.

Three of England's other changes involve the recalls of players unavailable to face the Springboks. Lock Martin Johnson was suspended for that match and is back in the pack for Danny Grewcock. Phil de Glanville has recovered from his ankle problem and replaces the man who took his place last week - Nick Greenstock, who is now a dislocated shoulder victim.

At scrum-half Kyran Bracken returns for Matt Dawson while Paul Grayson is the fifth change, deputising for concussed Mike Catt and picking up the goal-kicking role that he filled successfully last winter.

England - M Perry (Bath); D Rees (Sale), P de Glanville (Bath), W Greenwood (Leicester), A Healey (Leicester); P Grayson (Northampton), K Bracken (Saracens); J Leonard (Harlequins), R Cockerill (Leicester), D Garforth (Leicester), M Johnson (Leicester), G Archer (Newcastle), L Dallaglio (Wasps, capt), R Hill (Saracens), N Back (Leicester). Replacements: T Stimpson (Newcastle), M Dawson (Northampton), K Yates (Bath), M Regan (Bath), D Grewcock (Saracens), C Sheasby (Wasps).
