Waratahs blitz hapless Reds by record margin – Sydney Morning Herald
Word began to quickly spread through rugby circles on Saturday evening. The NSW Waratahs, with two wins from their past 10 matches, were officially back.
Although the 45-12 result – Queensland scored two tries with the game done and dusted – was the most dominant Waratahs performance in years, Reds coach Brad Thorn admitted his side weren’t mentally there after the sudden death of Jordan Petaia’s father during the week.
The 33-point margin was almost the largest in 138 years between NSW and Queensland. Had Jack Hardy and James O’Connor not scored late five-pointers, the margin would have matched a 45-0 shellacking at North Sydney Oval in 1955.
