Crusaders Super Rugby Live Stream 2024 Team Squad & Fixture
Crusaders Super Rugby Team Squads & Schedule
The Crusaders are a New Zealand Rugby Union team located in Christchurch, New Zealand, Jade Stadium (AMI Stadium), originally called as the Canterbury Crusaders. They represent the Mid Canterbury, Buller, Nelson Bays, West Coast, South Canterbury unions, and Marlborough.
They participated in the Super 14 competition, and they have won five times in 10 years, called Super 12 (1998, 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2005).
The Crusaders had a perfect season in 2002, winning all 11 games in the main part of the tournament, followed by their semi-finals and finals.
It was their first season under the leadership of Reuben Thorne, who also served as the captain of the All Blacks in 2002 and 2003. Richie McCaw then took the position and led the team to the fifth Super 12 championship in 2005.
After Super 12 became Super 14, the Crusaders continued to maintain their dominance in southern hemisphere rugby by winning the first Super 14. In 2007, the All Blacks were eliminated from the Super 14's seven rounds, which caused damage to the Crusaders, and they were forced to compete in the Bulls' semi-final in Pretoria, where they lost and finished in third place.
They were in a leading position in most games in 2008 but were defeated by the Highlanders in the final round of the round-robin. They won a home semi-final, and when they defeated the Hurricanes, they won the final match by defeating the Waratahs. It was their last game under the leadership of head coach Robbie Deans, who left to coach the Australian national rugby team.
The current head coach is a former player and All-Black at Todd Blackadder, but he will retire after the 2016 season.
