Crusaders edge out Stormers

Crusaders edge out Stormers
Tom Taylor proved the hero for the Crusaders as they snapped their unbeaten Super Rugby run to beat the Stormers 14-13.

The first five eighth kicked a late penalty and then produced a magnificent tackle to cut down replacement Stormers wing Sailosi Tagicakibau in the final minute to give the Crusaders their first victory after three rounds.

Tagicakibau looked set to score when he burst through the defence and surged towards the line but had his legs whipped out from under him by a copybook Taylor defensive hit.

In other results, the Bulls produced their best performance of the Super Rugby season so far to beat the Blues 38-22, Western Force defeated the Melbourne Rebels 34-7, while the Sharks beat the Lions 37-23.
