A breathtaking Rob Valetini try has helped the Brumbies take down a New Zealand opponent for a second straight week, knocking off the Hurricanes 42-25 in Canberra yesterday.

Valentini's 33rd-minute classic came after he kicked the ball from his own half, burned off two Hurricanes opponents and finished off with his outstretched hand, giving his side a lead they would blow out in a huge second half.

Meanwhile, the Blues still lead the Super Rugby points table standings and are still unbeaten throughout the competition while the Crusaders are in the third position and Chief on the fourth position.

Looking at results from last weekend's games, Blues beat Force 22-14, Waratahs beat Crusaders 24-21, Fijian Drua went down to Highlanders 27-24 and Moana Pasifika lost their 10th game to Rebels 26-22.
