The hooker hasn't played rugby since the All Blacks' win over France in Paris
in November.
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen says Coles will likely be named in the Rugby
Championship squad on Monday, so they can use him later in the tournament where
needed.
Hansen says Coles will first play for Wellington in the Mitre Ten Cup, to
gain match fitness.
He says they expect to see him on the park by late September.
In other injury news second-five Sonny Bill Williams will miss the first two
games of the Rugby Championship against Australia with a shoulder injury, while
prop Nepo Laulala has been ruled out of the competition altogether, with an arm
problem.
