Crusaders Super Rugby Pacific match Preview

The Waratahs of New South Wales and the Crusaders of Christchurch, New Zealand, will play a crucial match on Friday in Super Rugby Pacific round eight that might determine the future paths of both teams’ seasons.

Both have had unsatisfactory beginnings. Before defeating the Hamilton-based Chiefs in round six, the reigning champion Crusaders dropped their opening five games. The Sydney-based Waratahs had great expectations going into the season, but they have only won one game and are currently sitting one spot above the Crusaders in 10th position in the standings.

Now that the regular season is halfway through, both clubs must win practically every game left to have any hope of making a significant appearance in the postseason.
