Defending Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific champion, the Crusaders coach Rob Penney believes they can still make a comeback despite winning only one game out of eight this season.

The Crusaders are currently sitting at the bottom of the overall standings with 7 points.

Penney says he trusts his players implicitly, and he does not have any doubts they are capable of winning the competition.

He says he wants to make sure that regardless of the scoreboard, people can see that the team really cares about what is going on.

Captain Scott Barrett says they have to block out the negativity and stay focused.

The Crusaders will meet the Rebels at 7.05 tonight.

Meanwhile, the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will host Moana Pasifika at 2pm tomorrow at Churchill Park in Lautoka.

In other Super Rugby Pacific match, the Waratahs will face the Chiefs at 9.35 tonight, the Brumbies will take on the Hurricanes at 4.35pm tomorrow, the Highlanders will play the Force at 7.05pm tomorrow, and the Reds will meet the Blues at 9.35pm tomorrow.
