    A famous victory for Moana Pasifika to finish their maiden Super Rugby Pacific season in style

    A famous victory for Moana Pasifika to finish their maiden Super Rugby Pacific season in style


    They've beaten the Brumbies 32-22 in Auckland to ensure the Canberra side slip to fourth place... and there's an all-Kiwi top three.

    Moana captain Sekope Kepu is bursting with pride after the upset at Mount Smart Stadium - the Wallabies prop was red-carded in the 11th minute of his 150th match, but his teammates rallied in his absence for the historic result.



    The Brumbies will now host the Hurricanes in next week's quarter-finals, after the Canes lost in Perth, going down 27-22 to the Western Force.

    The Blues needed a drop goal after the final hooter from fullback Zarn Sullivan to edge the Waratahs 20-17 in Sydney.
