Improving their discipline is top of the shopping list for the Crusaders as they look to breath some life into their flailing Super Rugby season

18 May 2024

The defending champions gave away 12 penalties in last week's loss to the Highlanders - six of them resulting in successful shots at goal.

It's the third time in five weeks their penalty count has been in double digits.

Flanker Cullen Grace says they're guilty of being overzealous.

The Crusaders are away to the Brumbies this afternoon from 4.30 - they're yet to win on the road this season.
