Apart from the 23-member Swire Shipping Fijian Drua squad, the remaining 15 players will be playing for the other clubs. Drua’s opponent NSW Waratahs have named Langi Gleeson on the bench.
Tonight, the Crusaders line-up consists of halfback Noah Hotham, Levi Aumua, Chay Fihaki and winger Sevu Reece who is two tries away from being Super Rugby’s top try scorer of all time. Prop George Bower has been named on the bench while Blues coach Vern Cotter has retained Hoskins Sotutu at No.8.
