The Crusaders take on new comers the Southern Kings this Saturday. While the Kings are new to the Investec Super Rugby tournament, their coach Matt Sexton is no stranger to the Crusaders and he will be out to show his old team mates what his South African team are made of.
Head Coach Todd Blackadder has named his team making four changes to the team that played the Bulls last weekend.
In the starting fifteen Willi Heinz takes the number 9 jersey while Luke Romano returns from injury moving Andy Ellis and Dominic Bird respectively to the bench.
On the bench, Codie Taylor will have the opportunity to make his first appearance for the Crusaders if called upon. Zac Guildford’s return to the Crusaders earlier this week sees him take the bench and the opportunity to play his first game in the Investec Super Rugby 2013 season.
Kick-off is at 7:35pm at AMI Stadium (Addington). Tickets are still available and can be purchased through Ticket Direct (ticketdirect.co.nz or 0800 224 224) or from The Warehouse.
Fans are reminded that there will be a free direct bus service to the game at AMI Stadium. The Rugby Express park and ride service will run from Northwood Supa Cenre, The Hub Hornby, The Palms, Beresford Street (via New Brighton and Eastgate) and Merivale Mall, returning rugby fans back to their base after the game.
