Yep covid

[george33]

Do U no Crotty replacement yet ?

[Duluth]

From the Crusaders website:

Quinten Strange has been ruled out of the starting XV after sustaining a neck injury in training. He’ll stay home as a precaution.  

Ryan Crotty also sustained a minor groin injury during Captain’s Run and has been ruled out of the Blues fixture. 

Tahlor Cahill takes Quin’s starting spot. Fletcher Anderson and Johnny McNicholl take spots on the bench, Anderson looking at a debut in the jersey. 

[Duluth]

So I think this is the new side:

George Bower, George Bell, Fletcher Newell, Tahlor Cahill, Jamie Hannah, Dominic Gardiner, Tom Christie, Cullen Grace, Willi Heinz, Riley Hohepa, Macca Springer, David Havili (c), Levi Aumua, Sevu Reece, Chay Fihaki

Reserves: Ioane Moananu, Joe Moody, Seb Calder, Fletcher Anderson, Corey Kellow, Noah Hotham, Johnny McNicholl, Dallas McLeod

@Duluth so no covid involved then going by that?

[Duluth]

@george33

I guess not. I only know what was on their website

[george33]

Fletcher Anderson?

[Crazy Horse]

That Crusaders outfit is arguably starting to look the weakest NZ team on paper.

Hopefully he just needs his hands on the ball more,1 or 2 runs a game is a waste.
