New South Wales Waratahs vs. Crusaders in Super Rugby 2022: Schoolteacher gets call up for Leichhardt Oval clash

Ed Craig, a teacher and assistant first XV coach from Sydney private school Shore, has been called up to the New South Wales Waratahs squad. Dave Porecki and Tom Horton both suffered head knocks in the loss to Chiefs on Friday. Mahe Vailanu will make his debut start against Crusaders this week. The Tahs had a torrid start to their campaign last week when Angus Bell was sent off within minutes of the start. Rahboni Warren-Vosayco will start at No.8 for the first time this season. Tolu Latu is serving an 11-week ban and is on the nose with his French club.
