Highlanders assistant coach Tony Brown says the team has already "moved on" from the Queenstown incident at the weekend involving some of his players, who have been sanctioned but won't miss game time.

The Highlanders issued an apology on Monday after seven of their players were involved in a drunken night out during their bye week which resulted in a police callout due to guests at the hotel they were staying in complaining about their behaviour and noise.

The club added in their apology no Highlanders players caused damage to the hotel they were staying in or faced any police action.

The Chiefs will host the Crusaders at 7.05pm Saturday while the Blues will face the Highlanders at 3.35pm Sunday.
