Ultimate Rugby Mar 3

The ref blows the final whistle to bring to an end a pulsating game of rugby, which saw an incredible second half turn around from the Tahs to grab an unlikely victory. The Blues will be disappointed to have let a 14 point half time lead slip, as a much improved handling display from the Tahs in the second half set the groundwork for a memorable come back. Thanks for following the match here with Ultimate Rugby, see you next time.

With the Tahs now in the ascendancy, Folau makes a great break down the right hand side to send Kingston into the clear but the Blues scramble defence gets there and eventually the Blues are penalised for slowing down the ball on the 22. Foley slots it to give his side their first lead.

The Waratahs win a scrum and attack. The Blues defence initially is good as the Tahs attack comes off the back of the scrum, but they patiently go through 12 phases until a surge from Horne gets them to the 5m line and Bernard Foley goes over for an all important try, drawing the scores level..

55 minutes gone, after a slow start to the half from the Blues they work the ball into Tahs territory for the first time, but after a number of pick and gos they lose the ball forward at the breakdown.

The Tahs have started the first half with all of the possession but errors again costing them them. A breakthrough finally comes as great hands from Lucas puts Folau through a gap in midfield to score, after a scintillating initial break from Foley.

The referee calls time on an interesting half of rugby. The Tahs have had the lions share of possession and territory, but handling errors and turnovers are costing them in attack and defence, as the Blues look incredibly dangerous off turn over possession. The Tahs will need a big turn around in the second half if they are to take anything from this game.
