Carter back at first five-eighth

Dan Carter is back at first five-eighth for the Crusaders’ Super Rugby match against the Bulls in Pretoria on Sunday morning.

Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder has made five changes to the side.

Joe Moody replaces Wyatt Crockett and hooker Ben Funnell comes in for Codie Taylor.

Richie McCaw, who was rested last weekend, returns to start at openside flanker in place of Matt Todd who was named on the bench.

Jordan Taufua again starts at blindside flanker.

Carter’s move from second-five to first-five means Colin Slade is listed on the bench. 

Tom Taylor has been elevated to the midfield alongside centre Ryan Crotty.

The Crusaders will play the Bulls at 5.10am this Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Hurricanes will play the Rebels at 6.35 tonight while at 9pm the Lions will face the Reds.
