(Reuters) - New South Wales Waratahs coach Darren Coleman was left to rue a deflating end to a Super Rugby Pacific season that had shown glimmers of promise only to end with a quarter-final exit at the hands of the Auckland Blues on Friday.
The Blues handed the Waratahs a 41-12 defeat in Auckland that saw the New Zealanders romp clear as a result of a strong second-half showing after a keenly contested opening 40 minutes, leaving Coleman frustrated at several missed opportunities.
