The Waratahs capitalised on a yellow card to Berakah Tuifaasisina for collapsing a rolling maul that went nearly 40m when flanker Jarvis Orr sliced through for the opener, capitalising on an offload from player of the match Justice Taumoepeau

Fellow flanker James Finegan dived over in the 29th minute before winger Heamasi Makasini's effort just before half-time gave them a 15-3 lead at the break.

Captain Onitoni Large sealed the win after a nice piece of counter-attacking as Queensland could only celebrate a late consolation try to Oliver Nasser.

With one title already wrapped up, the Waratahs eyed off revenge against the Brumbies, who handed home their only loss in competition history in the opening round.

However, Hooper and the Brumbies had other ideas, with the flanker delivering a masterclass in maul destruction to take out player of the match.
