Waratahs 19-13 Force, Allianz Stadium
Scorecard

Wing Reece Robinson kicked 14 points as Waratahs overhauled Force challenge with a 19-13 triumph at Allianz Stadium in the Super Rugby clash on Saturday.

Robinson scored three penalties in the first half but Waratahs suffered a setback when prop Sekope Kepu was sin-binned in the 22nd time which was capitalised by fly-half Jono Lance who scored a converted try in the 26th minute and also backed it up with two more penalties ensuring a 9-13 lead for the visitors at half-time.

With Force failing to add any point in the second half, Will Skelton brought Waratahs back into the team when he danced over the post at the start of second half and Robinson capped a fantastic game for him with a conversion and fourth penalty kick.

Warathas top the Australian conference while Force are at fourth position.
