The inclusion of Super 14 rugby rookie Aaron Cruden is one four changes to the Hurricanes for their match against the Brumbies at Canberra on Friday night.

The young fly half has been named to start the game ahead of the more conservative Willie Ripia.

Coach Colin Cooper has made four changes to his starting 15 from their last match, a 26-26 draw against the Crusaders on April 2.

Halfback Tyson Keats starts ahead of Piri Weepu, who has been released on bereavement after the death this week of a grandparent, while utility back Tamati Ellison has recovered from injury to be named on the wing and flanker Nick Crosswell gets his first start, in place of an ill Karl Lowe.
