WELLINGTON (Reuters) - The Canterbury Crusaders rode a blistering start to put the New South Wales Waratahs to the sword 29-10 in Christchurch on Friday but a second-half try from former player Zac Guildford deprived them of what could be a crucial bonus point.

Coming off a loss to the Otago Highlanders that broke their eight-match Super Rugby winning streak last week, the Crusaders stunned the Waratahs with a breathtaking first 20 minutes of irresistible 15-man rugby.
