        The Crusaders will name their team tomorrow morning.
        They'll also come with an official injury update. Usually that means bad news. I presume that will be about Moody.

            RESERVES:
            16 Ricky Jackson

            21 Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi
            22 Simon Hickey
            23 Dallas McLeod

            Head Coach Scott Robertson has made a number of changes to his side, with All Blacks Ethan Blackadder, Richie Mo'unga, Braydon Ennor and George Bridge all to sit out the Waratahs match. Meanwhile, David Havili and Will Jordan both return from a week off and several players are in line to get an opportunity off the bench in Sydney.

            The Crusaders will also welcome back Sione Havili Talitui from injury to face the Waratahs, with the Mako loose forward to make his return via the bench.

                  In the 79th minute!

                  I am surprised that Mo'unga wasn't rested last game if this was always the plan.

                        Charlie Gamble was set for big things as a Crusaders junior, but setbacks saw him playing park footy in Sydney. Now a NSW star, he takes on his old team on Saturday.

                            From Stuff -
                            Robertson has suffered a late injury blow with 20-year-old locking sensation Zach Gallagher ruled out with a shoulder injury suffered last week against the Melbourne Rebels.

                            Initial indications were that he would be fit for the Waratahs clash but the AC joint injury has not healed in time. Hamish Dalzell has joined the Crusaders in Sydney and moves onto the bench with Dominic Gardiner to start at lock.

                                      Neither winger has taken the high ball cleanly so far, going to be more of them coming.

                                        Tahs looking very structured, almost playing a NH game plan vs ABs.

                                          The team in white is the Crusaders right? Bad scrum.

                                            Crusaders could be in trouble today, the Tahs are looking clinical.

                                              Jeez the NZ teams have been smashed in penalties these last two weeks and this game is following the same pattern. Especially at the start of the game. Does NZ rugby have a discipline problem?

                                                More soft defence after giving away multiple penalties.
