The Blues coach Pat Lam says the Crusaders will battle a tough travel schedule and a sold out Suncorp Stadium when they face the Queensland Reds in the Super Rugby final next Saturday night but he says if any team can overcome those obstacles to claim the title it's the red and blacks.
The Blues were knocked out of the playoffs after losing to the table topping Reds in Brisbane last night but the Crusaders kept the New Zealand flag flying after trouncing the Stormers 29-10 in the second semi-final in Cape Town this morning.
Lam says the Reds must enter the final as favourites but he's backing the Crusaders to lift the trophy.
