Waratahs finish top
FULLBACK Israel Folau scored his 12th try of the season as the New South Wales Waratahs beat the Otago Highlanders 44-16 yesterday to clinch first place and a home semifinal in Super Rugby with a round to spare.
Folau ran off an inside pass from center Kurtley Beale to score in the 42nd minute, boosting the Waratahs’ confidence after they had taken a brittle 11-9 lead to halftime. Winger Rob Horne, prop Sekope Kepu, scrumhalf Nick Phipps, lock Jacques Potgeiter and replacement Taqele Naiyaravoro also scored tries as the Waratahs claimed a bonus point, making their place atop the table unassailable with a franchise-record sixth-straight win.
