Have to say I was pleased to see Crusaders on news again last night. I thought it was good when Blues were doing it and think similar with Crusaders. All part of keeping rugby and super etc on the minds of people, personally think this kind of stuff is bloody good from all involved.

Just heard on SENZ that Munster sold out their 15,000 seat ground for the Crusaders game in 20 mins, so they moved it to the local 40,000 seat Gaelic Football stadium and that also sold out. A tough ask for the Crusaders for a first preseason hit out in front of 40,000 rabid Munster fans. It should be fun. I hope we can watch in NZ?
Edit: It is the first 6 Nations weekend so Munster won't have their Test players. Will any All Blacks be available for the Saders? -

Zach Gallagher is injured?

Welsh test centurion Leigh Halfpenny's future in Super Rugby Pacific is uncertain, after he suffered a serious chest injury against Munster in Ireland last Sunday morning (NZT). The Crusaders have confirmed the fullback, who transferred to Christchurch after 101 appearances for Wales and four for the British and Irish Lions, tore a pectoral muscle during the 21-19 loss to Munster in Cork.

Yeah He won't play much or more likely no Super Rugby.
