The NSW Waratahs have won their first game against a New Zealand side in three years, with an epic victory over the Crusaders.

The NSW Waratahs are savouring a win for the ages after lighting up Leichhardt Oval with a rousing 24-21 Super Rugby Pacific victory over the mighty Crusaders.It's the 'Tahs first victory over a Kiwi side since 2019

"Let's do this fast boys, I've got a lot of beer to drink," jubilant Waratahs coach Darren Coleman said at his post-match press conference. Fellow winger Mark Nawaqanitawase also crossed early as the Waratahs stunned the Crusaders to lead 14-0 after only 10 minutes. Gordon wouldn't have been pleased to see No.8 Rahboni Warren-Vosayaco being yellow-carded for illegally holding a player up after a Crusaders penalty try early in the second stanza.

Then the Waratahs took full advantage of their one-man advantage, with a rolling maul penalty try that also led to Crusaders flanker Pablo Matera being yellow-carded. The victory reduced young Waratahs fly-half Tane Edmed — the son of former Balmain Tigers prop Steve Edmed — to tears."I don't know what to say, honestly," Edmed told Stan Sport on the very same ground on which his father made his name 30 years ago.

NRL grand final 'not going anywhere', NSW Premier says, as Queensland circlesNSW Premier Dominic Perrottet dismisses threats to move the NRL grand final to Queensland, saying the match 'is not going anywhere'. Why should the NSW govt, IE taxpayers many of whom are not interested in Thugby League and the gambling that accompanies it, have to pay for Sleazy V’s stadiums? League… most players borderline criminals. Good alternative for NRL Grand Final could be NZ.. I would think that the money spent on redevelopment or building better stadiums around the country could be better spent on health, education & housing for low income earners, to benefit all tax payers not just sports fans.
