The table leading Hurricanes have underlined their Super Rugby title credentials with a 38-31 win over the Crusaders in Wellington. 

The home side scored two crucial tries before halftime and then kept the visitors at least seven points away despite a tit-for-tat second half.

“Very happy to get the win.”
