Show Preview
The Queensland Reds are hunting their second win of the Trans-Tasman campaign against the ladder-leading Blues. Keep up to speed with this blockbuster on The Roar with live scores from 7:45pm (AEST).
The Reds did what many rugby fans had resigned themselves to believing was impossible last weekend – beating a New Zealand side. They had to hold on for dear life in the second half, but the drought-breaking win over the Chiefs has instilled a new sense of belief in the reigning Super Rugby AU champions.
They’ll have to step it up against the ruthless Blues, however. The Aucklanders have been keen to atone for a disappointing Aotearoa campaign and have taken it out on hapless Aussie opposition with three consecutive bonus point wins. However, a loss tonight would really shake up the final race – so they’ll need to be on their guard.
