Asafo Aumua is ruled out of this weekends game. Potentially rest of the finals series if the Canes progress
Argh, that's a big loss. Hopefully he can get himself sorted for next week. He did train yesterday so maybe they are taking it week to week.

Correct… I’m giving the fern the early news before it hits

Official update on Asafo. Not yet ruled out for the season but it's looking grim.

A real shame for the game and potentially beyond.
I’ve really liked his game this season. Far more clinical in his approach without losing that dynamism. Hopefully it’s not a grade 2 as that could impact selection for French series.
Brumbies welcome AAA back at tighthead. Good battle looming up front.

Anyone know who the ref is for this game?

Of course it is. Why can’t they mix Aussies and Kiwis, it’s so stupid.

They usually work as a refereeing team now.

Berry misses a lot and Cronin I don't rate at all he is very one sided imo.

I get it but, in a playoff, it should be mixed if there are both an Aussie and Kiwi team involved.
Berry was the ref last time we were knocked out by the Brumbies in a controversial way. In his last game for the Canes, Ardie was 100% adamant he scored the match winner, but somehow they couldn't get the right angle. Can see all this shit happening again, especially after all their whining last week about Aussies being unfairly treated.
-
@Canes4life I look forward to Turunui turning into the kind of commentator who sees a 50/50 call and says, “Fair enough”, praising it as good refereeing. No doubt opining about how calls balance out, bounce of the ball, couldn't play without referees and they should be treated with respect. Etc.

I love that we're blaming the ref for losing already. We're evolving.

I’ve just seen this picture so many times before. The Canes seem to always get the Brumbies in Canberra, followed by a questionable reffing display. I’m hoping it will be different tomorrow night but you know ‘same ol Aussies, always cheating’.
I’m hoping it ends up being a dead rubber so any pre-determined advantage the Brumbies get with the refs will be thrown out the window and we can throw everything at them without any consequence, despite injuries of course.
