The All Blacks suspended first five-eighth, Aaron Cruden, won't face any further sanction from New Zealand Rugby for the night out that led to him missing a flight to Argentina.

Cruden missed last weekend's win over the Pumas and will be playing for Manawatu on Sunday instead of taking on the Springboks in Johannesburg.
New Zealand Rugby's general manager for rugby Neil Sorensen met with Cruden and his management this week and says while he does not condone the player's actions, he has already been dealt a significant sanction by being suspended for two Tests.
Sorensen says Cruden had to suffer the shame in a very public manner, something most people don't have to go through.
Cruden will be available for selection for the All Blacks Test against Australia in Brisbane on 18 October.
