Crusaders Head Coach Todd Blackadder has named his side to face the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria this  Sunday morning at 6:10am (NZT).  It includes five changes to the starting line-up that beat the Cheetahs in Christchurch last weekend.

 

There are two rotations in the front row, with prop Joe Moody and hooker Ben Funnell taking the starting spots this week in place of Wyatt Crockett and Codie Taylor who are both on the bench.

 

Richie McCaw returns to play this week at 7, while Matt Todd will provide loose forward cover from the bench.
Dan Carter will also play in his traditional number 10 jersey, which sees Tom Taylor move into second five and Colin Slade preparing to make an impact from the reserves.
