Auckland Blues coach Leon MacDonald is confident his young team will bounce back from the disappointment of their Super Rugby final defeat at the hands of the Canterbury Crusaders when the competition returns next year.

The Blues lost 21-7 in the final as the Crusaders snapped a 15-match winning streak by MacDonald’s in-form side at Eden Park on Saturday to claim the title.

“We’ve got a good group of young men and, at times, some of the maturity and leadership they showed this year exceeded their age,” he said. The Blues are set to be boosted by the return of Patrick Tuipulotu after a season in Japan with Toyota Verblitz while prop Karl Tu’inukuafe, who is due to leave to play in France, is the team’s only confirmed departure.
