- 1134
In the second game of the morning, the Waratahs managed to stun the Rebels at home with a 20-15 which helps their chances for a playoff spot. Here are a few stars we thought were the games top performers:
Adam Ashley-Cooper
The veteran center organised his team well as they had to defend for long periods at one stage. Ashley-Cooper managed eight tackles in the game and scored a fantastic opening try in the game.

Curtis Rona
He was very handy on defense and attack this morning - Although his stats may state something else Rona did manage to score a try and made two try saving tackles for his team.
Marika Koroibete
The big winger was used as his side’s main weapon and although he didn't score he always seemed to be park of buildup play in the match. Koroibete made 110 meters in the game, had eight carries, offloaded the ball three time, beat two defenders and made 2 clean breaks all on attack today.
Michael Hooper
He has been mister consistent for the Tahs this season and was once again HUGE on defense. Hooper topped the tackle charts with 20 and made 19 meters on attack.
