It was good news for two of the New Zealand teams that kicked off their Super Rugby seasons this week. The Crusaders have cruised to an easy 43-25 bonus point victory in their Super Rugby season opener against the Waratahs in Nelson.The two times defending champions dominated the first half leading 24-6 at the break, thanks to tries to outside backs Will Jordan, Braydon Ennor, and Leicester Fainga'anuku.The Waratahs found hope early in the second half with two tried to wing Mark Nawaqanitawase, but the Crusaders quickly quashed any hope the visitors had with Jordan and Ennor grabbing doubles and Luke Romano also getting on the score sheet.The Blues hoped to emerge victorious in their home game against the Chiefs. The Auckland side appeared completely in control at the break, after Rieko Ioane scored two typically blockbusting tries on the occasion of his 50th game and the Chiefs, expected to be competition front-runners this season, were strangely absent on attack and defence – they missed 20 tackles in the first half alone.But the visitors' comeback was quick and brutal, a turnaround which reaped a total of 32 second-half points. It was helped immensely by the introduction of their returning first-five Cruden who coolly organised their attack, dropped a goal in the final moments to extend his team's margin to seven points and kicked a penalty after the siren to deny the Blues a losing bonus point.The match ended 37-29 to the Blues. The Hurricanes suffered an even more embarrassing defeat, losing 27-0 to the Stormers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
