CONFIRMED: Crusaders name side for Super Rugby Final

An unchanged BNZ Crusaders team will take on the Lions in the 2017 Investec Super Rugby Grand Final this weekend.

Head Coach Scott Robertson said it was great to be able to have consistency in the team throughout the finals series: "A squad of 25, which included the 23 who played in the quarter and semi-finals, travelled to Johannesburg at the start of the week and all players are fit and available for selection this weekend, which is awesome.

"We have settled in really well in Johannesburg and we are building the week nicely towards Saturday afternoon's big clash. We love Finals week, it is why we play," Robertson said.

Kick-off at Emirates Airline Park is at 4pm this Saturday afternoon local time, or live on Sky Sport NZ at 2am Sunday New Zealand time.
