There's an added intensity at Crusaders training this week following what coach Todd Blackadder's calling their worst performance in his four years at the helm.
Blackadder's put his players on notice, saying his job now is to select a team that will do the jersey justice after weeks of playing poorly.
He says it's time for the players to respond.
"We set really high standards for ourselves and when we don't achieve them three weeks in a row it's time for our actions to do our talking. I'm sick of talking about putting good performances on the track."
Blackadder says they'll assess Kieran Read's hip injury this morning and decide whether he needs a scan.
