Henson went through a fitness test with the Wales medical team on Friday morning and a late, precautionary, decision had been taken to withdraw him. However, he is expected to be able to take a full part in team preparations next week.

Sonny Parker came into the side at inside centre in place of Henson and fellow Osprey’s back Lee Byrne took up the position vacated by Parker on the bench.
