The Crusaders

The Crusaders have played the Hurricanes a total of nine times in Super 12 matches since the competition started in 1996. They have won six times and drawn once. They have beaten the Hurricanes the last three occasions they've met, including last year's semifinal in Christchurch. The Crusaders have won the Super 12 title four times so far and are regarded by some as the greatest team in the competition. However what's happened in the past won't matter when they come to Wellington to take on the Hurricanes in May. Only one team will win on the day.
