The Blues scrum, led by powerful All Blacks prop Karl Tu'inukuafe's best performance of the season, destroyed the Rebels to set the tone for the statement performance. The Blues arrived with tactics to put the ball in behind the Rebels by harnessing their multiple kicking options. Rieko Ioane dropped the ball three times while Sullivan was guilty on another occasion to squander chances to convert. Through Black's boot and an impressive 48-metre strike from Sullivan, the Blues steadily built their lead.
