The NSW Waratahs woke today with no regrets despite falling painfully short in a gripping Super 14 final against the Crusaders.

Those who managed some sleep anyway.

The bleary-eyed Waratahs boarded a 7am flight out of Christchurch - sans trophy after a tense and gallant 20-12 loss to the Crusaders at AMI Stadium - and most opted to spend the night drowning their sorrows after their second runners-up finish in three years.

Crusaders No.8 Mose Tuali'i's try two minutes out from halftime was a vital blow against in Saturday night's Super 14 final in Christchurch, according to flanker and Waratahs captain Phil Waugh.

"It was pretty tough. We went out with the intent to play and to attack and felt midway through that first half we were doing a lot of defending and what probably really hurt us was that try two minutes out from halftime.
