The Reds will host the Crusaders in the 2011 super rugby final in Brisbane on Saturday night.
Reds beat the Blues 30-13 in the first semi-final last night while this morning the Crusaders defeated the Stormers 29-10.
The Blues asked some questions, scoring just before half time to trail 15-7 at the break.
But Quade Cooper had more than enough answers, spinning a tale of magic as he set up two tries and made up for an ordinary night with the boot.
Reds captain, James Horwill said the emotions would be kept under control this week but admitted it would be a moment of enormous pride to lead his side out next Saturday night.
Blues captain, Kevin Mealamu believes his side lost to a better team on the night.
The Reds will take on the Crusaders on Saturday night at 9.40pm for the 2011 super rugby final.
