The Blues have extended New Zealand Super Rugby sides' winning streak over Australian opposition to 15 games, with an 18‑12 victory over the Brumbies.

It was the Brumbies' third loss in a row and ninth consecutive defeat to New Zealand opposition.

The Brumbies lead the Australian Conference on 17 points after 8 matches.

In those eight matches, the Brumbies have won three, so as the Blues.

The Brumbies have played the Blues 22 times in Super Rugby and they have won 9 matches and lost 13.

No Australian side has beaten New Zealand opposition this season but, the Kiwis have a poor away record, winning four of their past 34 matches on their travels.

On Friday, the Highlanders defeated the Stormers 57-14, last night the Kings hammered the Rebels 44‑3, the Crusaders defeated the Cheetahs 48‑21, the Chiefs beat the Sunwolves 27-20, the Waratahs edged the Reds 29-26, the Lions defeated the Force 24-15,while this morning the Sharks defeated the Jaguares 33-25.
