So what did we learn?
The Queensland Reds and Blues are developing a history of delivering absolute classics, with this game no different.
Four of the last seven games have been decided by seven or fewer, with not even 80 minutes able to separate the sides as they delivered some cracker tries.
Ultimately, a split-second moment was the difference, as Fraser McReight was pinged for side entry when it looked like there was a knock-on before he made contact.
But it comes with being such a prolific breakdown threat; you've got to go for those moments, and as coach Les Kiss said: "s*** happens."
This game is becoming must-watch over the ANZAC Day period and it should be centre stage if Super Round continues during this period.
Harry McLaugh-Phillips stepped up to the challenge of going head-to-head with Beauden Barrett and got the better of him.
He looked poised whenever he got the ball and had some nice touches to unleash his exciting outside backs. His goal-kicking was superb, slotting several from the sideline.
As for Barrett, he was off his game and often under pressure. He stepped up for the winning penalty when it mattered, though.
Harry Wilson gave the Blues all sorts of headaches as the Wallabies skipper is finding his best form at the back end of the season.
His freakish athleticism came in handy early, combining nicely with Tim Ryan to nearly cross for a spectacular try.
He'd get his own right before half-time, racking up the carries (16) and tackles (15).
Wilson is at his most dangerous when he can use his array of skills, with this performance and his snap kick in the last game against the Crusaders, a great sign for Wallabies fans.
The new stadium seemed to be playing tricks for the Aussie sides on Saturday, with the Reds and Brumbies both struggling.
Combined, they lost seven lineouts, the majority coming down inside the opposition's 22.
Comparatively, the Hurricanes and Blues made 25 throws and lost just one.
It's a trend the Aussies will be hoping doesn't follow them deep into Super Rugby and the Test season.
The Aussies came to Christchurch off the back of several big wins over Kiwi teams but now find themselves licking their wounds after a 0-3 campaign.
The top four spots on the ladder are now occupied by the New Zealand sides, with the Crusaders leaping the Brumbies and Reds.
There's still plenty of time for the ladder to sort itself out, with local derbies set to dominate the last five rounds of the season.
It could leave teams cannibalising each other's finals campaigns, adding to the intrigue.
