Waratahs move to top of Australian Super Rugby Conference

The Waratahs moved to the top of the Australian Super Rugby Conference and into second place after beating the Crusaders 32‑22 with a bonus point in Sydney.  

This also means that the Crusaders are out of the Super Rugby title race.

Massive Fijian‑born winger Taqele Naiyaravoro, who this week signed for Glasgow Warriors, again added to his growing reputation with two tries, taking the final pass on both occasions from Wallaby fullback Israel Folau.

The Waratahs other tryscorer was winger Rob Horne and fly‑half Bernard Foley.
