Former All Blacks fullback Israel Dagg is in line to make his first appearance of the Super Rugby season after joining the Crusaders in Perth ahead of their clash with the Western Force.
The 49-Test veteran has joined the squad following an injury to fullback David Havili during their 43-37 win over the Lions in Johannesburg.
Their fourth successive win has lifted the Crusaders to third in the Australasian group and fourth overall in the Super Rugby standings.
The Crusaders will face Western Force at 11pm Friday.
