1:13 pm on 13 February 2010

The Hurricanes rugby captain Andrew Hore says a change in defensive tactics helped his side to a come-from-behind 34-20 victory over the Blues in the opening game of the Super 14 in Albany.

The Blues had jumped out to a 20-12 half-time lead but the Hurricanes scored 22 unanswered points in the second half to claim the win.

Hore says after conceding two tries in the first half they were forced to change their strategy.
