Defending Champions of the Super Rugby, the Crusaders have confirmed a massive boost for the 2020 campaign with veteran test lock Sam Whitelock returning to the squad.

Coach, Scott Robertson confirms that Whitelock's Japan contract ended this month and the All Black lock and former captain would be available when Super Rugby Aotearoa kicks off in a month's time.

Experience will be a key ingredient as teams play in empty stadiums and in a series of brutal all-New Zealand clashes because of the COVID-19 crisis.

And Whitelock's presence will only increase the Crusaders, who have won three consecutive titles, status as hot favorites to prevail once again.
