Brumbies-Crusaders Rugby in GIO Stadium of Round 13 of the inaugural Super Rugby Pacific season
The Crusaders will roll out their strongest line-up of the season when they take on the Brumbies in Canberra on Friday evening. Coach Scott Robertson has made five personnel changes to the line-up that dismantled the Western Force in Perth last weekend, bringing a cluster of key All Blacks into the starting XV for the mammoth trans-Tasman clash.
Friday’s clash is set to kick off at 7:45pm AEST (9:45pm NZT).

Perth, Canberra and Christchurch – the Crusaders are spread far and wide as they prepare for Friday’s crunch match against the Brumbies.
A few days after three new caps increased the number of players used this season to 45, the juggling of the roster has continued for a variety of reasons.
While captain Scott Barrett (suspension) and vice-captain Codie Taylor (rest) have joined the team in Australia’s capital, flanker Sione Havili Talitui has returned home for a scan on the hamstring he hurt early in last week’s demolition job of the Force.
Four players – Oli Jager, Mitchell Drummond, Zach Gallagher and Dominic Gardiner – have remained in Perth after contracting Covid-19 last week, and won’t be allowed to return to New Zealand until they return negative pre-departure tests, as per the country’s border rules.
