Lock Jason Eaton has been named in the Hurricanes' side for the Super 14 rugby match against the Lions in Wellington on Saturday night, ending the stand-down imposed on him for an off-field incident.

Eaton missed the win over the Western Force last weekend after breaking team protocol.

The Hurricanes' haven't revealed exactly what Eaton did, but media reports suggested there had been a verbal dispute with a barman.

Coach Colin Cooper made two other changes to his starting 15, with No. 8 Rodney So'oialo and openside flanker Karl Lowe making the run-on side for the first time this season.

Hurricanes: Cory Jane, Tamati Ellison, Conrad Smith, Ma'a Nonu, David Smith, Willie Ripia, Piri Weepu, Rodney So'oialo, Karl Lowe, Michael Paterson, Jason Eaton, Bryn Evans, Neemia Tialata, Andrew Hore (capt), John Schwalger. Reserves: Dane Coles, Jacob Ellison, Nick Crosswell, Scott Waldrom, Tyson Keats, Aaron Cruden, Andre Taylor.
