Super Rugby: Will Genia in line to face Lions
Genia slashed through the Highlanders’ defence from an attacking scrum in the 53rd minute to score the Reds’ fourth try which, with 14 points from the boot of fly-half Quade Cooper, was just enough to consign the Dunedin-based Highlanders to their fifth straight defeat.
The Reds improved their record to 5-2 this season, challenging the ACT Brumbies for supremacy in the Australian conference, while the Highlanders remained the tournament’s only winless team as it enters its seventh round.
