(Reuters) - The New South Wales Waratahs getting over-run by an abrasive and relentless Lions side in their Super Rugby semi-final in Johannesburg would not have surprised many given the performances of the Australian team this year.

The Waratahs had started strongly with two early tries before the South Africans got back to 19-19 by halftime and then overpowered the Sydney-based side in the second half to win 44-26 and set up a final with the Canterbury Crusaders.
