The Crusaders are on a mission to shut out Highlanders centre Malakai Fekitoa if they are to come out victors in their Super Rugby clash this weekend.
Fekitoa’s powerful leg-drive enabled him to break tackles and provide the spark in their attack but Crusaders Assistant Coach Aaron Mauger believes they can reduce Fekitoa’s effectiveness if they improve their defensive structure.
The Crusaders is expected to retain Daniel Carter and Ryan Crotty as their midfield combination against the Highlanders.
The Crusaders will take on the Highlanders at 7.35pm Saturday.
