RECAP: Reds v Crusaders

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman Round Two encounter between the Reds and Crusaders in Brisbane.

ADVERTISEMENT

The Crusaders have won 19 of their last 22 Super Rugby games against the Queensland Reds, including their last eight on the bounce; they have not lost to the Reds in the competition since the 2011 Final (Reds def. Crusaders, 18-13).

The Queensland Reds have won their last 11 consecutive Super Rugby games on home turf and a 12th straight home win would set a new club record in the competition.
