Crusaders name change: Christchurch Muslims welcome unity

From Morning Report, 7:30 am on 4 April 2019

On Wednesday the Crusaders and New Zealand Rugby announced they would hire a research company to seek feedback and provide recommendations on the name, the marketing and entertainment props used by the team. And in the meantime, the sword-wielding horseman dressed in armour won't be seen again.
