Brumbies v Highlanders
-
Not an easy place to travel and win. Hope the Highlanders front row are up for a contest.
-
am i miss remembering mason? i thought he was solid with some moments of impressive pace in his time to date, surprised we cant find a spot for him
-
That Brumbies second row and backrow is going to eat us alive
-
Don’t know why, but have a sneaky suspicion we win this in the ugliest way possible… hope im right!
@frugby I quickly think we won't get an Ugly win without Cam Millar featuring. I remember a few games last year we shouldn't have won he absolutely pinned the opposition in their half with his kicking and we ground them down defensively. I'd like to see that again.

First game this season I've looked at and thought I don't think we will get close this week.
Hope I'm wrong.
Weather looks warmish, but a bit damp

@SouthernMann think this might be the first time in ages none of the landers 23 have any experience at Test level, no de groot or fakatava tonight and even in recent lean years there's been a Jermaine Ainsley or Patchell involved

These stats aren't great reading for the Highlanders:
- The ACT Brumbies have won their last four games against the Highlanders
- The last four Super Rugby Pacific games at GIO Stadium between these two sides have been separated by one or two points at half-time
- The ACT Brumbies have won 11 of their last 12 games at GIO Stadium, whilst the Highlanders have lost 10 of their last 11 games in Australia
-
correct call
-
Got to take advantage of the 14 man advantage. Jeez that breakdown is haunting us
-
I understand it's a contact sport but that type of head contact is avoidable - dumb shit

So reckless he hardly made contact. Not like UJ had only just caught it either. Saved a red by being a spaz.

Going to be hard to play rug y without the ball.

That looks like a clear red card to me.

Think he's saved by being so inaccurate it was only glancing contact.

And because the guy he hit is an absolute fridge of a human being

Get a card and do absolutely nothing with the man advantage. Classic highlanders game management
