@Canes4life think they had alot out in the early rounds last year too.

Bu yep, not an ideal start for a team that need a good start, confidence will play a big part in things.

The Crusaders can probably count themselves lucky that the Canes have also been hit hard by injuries. Will be a bit of a cripple fight on Friday I feel.

Im assuming Dallas Mcleod has failed his attempt to play today. Toby Bell has been pulled from the Crusaders Development side and might be a late addition to the bench for a debut

With the injury toll they look to be drawing from Chch club players as some of those names aren't familiar to me, even from NPC. No Drummond.

A lot of Canterbury B and Crusader Academy players in there.

I recognise more names on the bench from age-group rugby than some of the starters.

BTW, do you know who the Crusaders NDC players are? I am assuming Sauira and Inch are two, with maybe Frost and Letiu/Oudenryn.
