Super Rugby 2016: Understrength Hurricanes beat Queensland Reds

The Hurricanes have overcome off-field disruption to get their Super Rugby campaign back on track with a 29-14 bonus-point win over the lowly Reds in Wellington.

The Hurricanes stood down five players from the match for breaking a team curfew in Durban last week in the lead-up to a disappointing defeat against the Sharks.

The Hurricanes claim a bonus point win over the Reds despite missing a handful of starters who were suspended for the clash.

Two of the replacements - wingers Wes Goosen and Jason Woodward, brought in for All Blacks Julian Savea and Cory Jane - scored three of the Hurricanes' five tries on Saturday night, with Woodward bagging a brace.

There was a lack of fluency in the Hurricanes' play but they did enough to secure a victory that creates a logjam at the top of the New Zealand conference.

They remain fourth in the conference, but they are now just one point below the three sides above them - the Crusaders, the Chiefs and the Highlanders.

The Reds, seeking just their third win of the season, showed plenty of endeavour.

They had a strong scrum and were competitive at the breakdown, but found it hard to break a tight defence.

They made most of the running in the opening spell, but their only reward was fullback Ayumu Goromaru's two penalties.

The Hurricanes, despite a scratchy display in which discipline and ball security were issues, scored the game's two first-half tries.

The opener went to Goosen, with the South African-born 20-year-old marking his Super Rugby debut by pulling in a pin-point Beauden Barrett kick and slipping a tackle to score.

The Hurricanes got their second after the Reds went a man down just on the halftime hooter, with loose forward Hendrik Tui yellow-carded for collapsing a maul.

From the penalty, the Hurricanes kicked for the corner and skipper Dane Coles finished off their line-out drive.

Goromaru reduced the margin to 12-9 early in the second half, but the Hurricanes took advantage of Tui's absence to grab a third try, as Woodward pounced on a loose Reds pass.

The Queenslanders finally breached the Hurricanes defence and it came from a powerful run from wing Chris Feauai-Sautia, whose try made it a three-point game.

But when the Hurricanes managed to get a secure scrum, substitute midfielder Ngani Laumape crashed his way over.

After the full-time hooter, as the Reds went in search of a score that would give them a close-loss bonus point, Woodward grabbed a runaway intercept try.
