Crusaders crush Highlanders

| Latest Rugby News | Friday June 1 2012 21:22

For the second time in a row, the Crusaders have crushed a fellow New Zealand Super Rugby franchise.

The red and blacks have followed on from their thumping of the Blues by hammering the Highlanders 51-18 in Christchurch.

The home side led 32-13 at halftime after scoring four first half tries.

The Crusaders scored a further three in the second spell, with Highlanders wing Hosea Gear grabbing an intercept for his side's only points of the second half.

Zac Guildford scored a double, with Wyatt Crockett, George Whitelock, Richie McCaw, Ryan Crotty and Matt Todd all crossing for the home team.

Tamati Ellison scored the Highlanders' try in the first half.
