Crusaders coach Scott Robertson ruefully declared "Israel Folau should be working for NASA" after the superstar's stunning aerial display brought the record‑setting Super Rugby champions crashing back to earth.       

Folau became Super Rugby's all‑time joint record try scorer as the NSW Waratahs snapped the Crusaders' record 19‑match winning streak with a 20‑12 victory last night.
