WELLINGTON: All Blacks captain Kieran Read is not expected to make his first appearance in Super Rugby for the Canterbury Crusaders for another three weeks, the team said on Monday.
"Reado is two or three, probably, weeks away," Crusaders assistant coach Jason Ryan told reporters in Christchurch on Monday."We are not 100 percent sure yet.Ryan admitted that the decision to keep Read sidelined was a mix from both the Crusaders and All Blacks."A bit of both," he said when asked who had the final decision."We can't sort of say much more than that.
Whitelock may come into contention for their clash with the Otago Highlanders in Dunedin on March 16, with Read possibly travelling to Wellington to face the Hurricanes on March 29. Referee Marius van der Westhuizen told Richie Mo'unga he had to leave the field because flyhalf Mitchell Hunt had not undergone a Head Injury Assessment and therefore could not be replaced.
