Crusaders beat Reds to seal quarter-final against Reds. The Crusaders led 21-3 halftime and were never genuinely threatened, despite a second-half fightback from the Reds that included tries from Richie Asiata and impressive Wallabies loose forward Harry Wilson. This was a wake-up call of sorts, but comparing the two teams, the Crusaders have much more upside. Insert Mo'unga and Taylor; inject a sermon from Robertson and the Crusaders should prove too strong for the Reds once more. Crusaders 28 (Fergus Burke, Will Jordan, Brodie McAlister, Tom Christie tries; Burke 4 cons)Reds 15 (Richie Asiata, Harry Wilson tries; Lawson Creighton con, pen)HT: 21-3
