Crusaders Head Coach Todd Blackadder has named the team to play the Cheetahs this Saturday night. Kick-off is 7:35pm at the new Christchurch Stadium.
There are two changes to the forward pack that played the Chiefs two weeks ago. Two of the Whitelock brothers who started on the bench in the last game, Sam and Luke, are starting at number 5 and 6 respectively this week.
Tom Taylor gets his first start at number 10 since the pre-season and Dan Carter has entered the mix for the first time this year, taking his place on the bench.
Israel Dagg returns to his preferred position of fullback this week, as Sean Maitland and Zac Guildford take the wings. Ryan Crotty returns from injury to take the inside centre position.
