All Blacks Sonny Bill Williams and Brad Thorn are back in the Crusaders lineup for Sunday's Super Rugby clash with the Reds in Brisbane.

Williams has recovered from a bruised knee suffered in the match against the Cheetahs two weeks ago and he replaces Ryan Crotty at second five eighth.

The Reds/Crusaders match kicks off at 6.10pm on Sunday.
