Crusaders ands Reds updated

That is a very exciting back line we are fielding. Cant wait to see the young guys show their stuff.

Prefer Mounga running at 10 but at least its not Cameron starting. His form this year is a concern

Good point, i heard he was being rested this week as well somewhere

They must have made a change afterwards - I used the team initially posted and I have made the enw changes as required,
