All Black stars back for Sharks duel

Cape Town - The Crusaders are likely to recall several All Black stars for their Super Rugby clash against the Sharks in Durban on Saturday.

According to the Stuff.co.nz website, All Blacks Kieran Read, Joe Moody, Codie Taylor and Andy Ellis will all return to action for this weekend's clash.

The quartet sat in their blazers and shirts as they watched their team-mates dismantle the Southern Kings 57-24 in Christchurch last weekend.

Crusaders assistant coach Tabai Matson said the four are expected to feature prominently on the team-sheet to face the Sharks.

All Blacks midfielder, Ryan Crotty, who got a run off the bench against the Kings, is a strong prospect to start in the midfield.

Saturday's clash at Kings Park is scheduled for 17:15.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
