The Crusaders Development XV will play Sydney University this afternoon, and co-coaches Reuben Thorne and Mark Brown have named their side for the match in Lincoln.
Mark Brown said Sydney University will no doubt present a great challenge for the home side: "Sydney University are the reigning Shute Shield champions so this is an opportunity that doesn't come along very often, for some of our young development players to test themselves against some of Australia's emerging talent."
The Crusaders Development XV didn't play last week following their impressive 40-12 win over the Highlanders Bravehearts on 22nd February, and will face the Bravehearts again next weekend in Dunedin, for what will be their final fixture of 2020.
Kick off in the Crusaders Development XV match against Sydney University is 2:30pm, Saturday 7 March, at Lincoln University.
