George Bower will be out to prove himself and impress All Blacks selectors as he has been given the nod to start ahead of Joe Moody at loosehead prop against the Chiefs in the Super Rugby Aotearoa.

There is also a change in the midfield, with Vice-Captain David Havili moving in-field to second five-eighth, making way for Will Jordan to slot in at fullback.

A moment's silence will be observed by both teams prior to kick-off, to show support for people affected by the March 15 attack of two years ago.

The Crusaders will face the Chiefs at 6.05pm.
