The Crusaders Development XV has been named to play the Highlanders Bravehearts at Pleasant Point this weekend.
The Crusaders Development XV includes eight current members of the Crusaders Sky Super Rugby Aotearoa squad. Saturday's match is also a welcome return to play for tighthead prop, Oli Jager, who injured his ankle during the Crusaders pre-season.
The two sides met just a couple of weeks ago in a game that went down to the wire. The Crusaders Development side led that match 19-14 at halftime before the Bravehearts came back in the second half to win 35-31.
Kick off in the match between the Crusaders Development XV and the Highlanders Bravehearts is 1:30pm, Saturday 13th March at Pleasant Point.
