Catholic cross-emblazoned knights on horses have been scrapped from the Crusaders' pre-match entertainment, after the Christchurch mosque attacks.
The Canterbury team have been considering moving away from the association with the Crusades, a religious war started by the Latin Church against Muslims.
Today, they've announced the Crusaders Horsemen won't feature in the rest of this year's games, including this weekend's match.
And the team have engaged Research First to look at two options for their future: keeping the Crusaders name, but changing the imagery of knights on horseback - or scrapping the name in a complete rebrand.
NZ Rugby boss Steve Tew says maintaining the status quo is no longer an option, as the association with the religious Crusades is too strong.
Also today, how the markets reacted to the shock departure of Simon Moutter from Spark, and why are so many New Zealanders still being scammed online?
