Ok c'mon Canes' men how we going to go this week, it was a bloody good touch up Brumbies gave us a few weeks back!
Need to be very solid in the set pieces, also be really aggressive at the breakdown... do those things with the dangerous backs we have & it should be a good win for the Canes.

It will also be a game of two halves.

"Jordie Barrett, Isaia Walker-Leawere, Tyrel Lomax, Ruben Love, and Julian Savea - all rejoining the team in the Australian capital and available for selection".

Good to see that all those players are available... yeah, makes more sense to have 6 teams in play-offs next time.

As long as a game of two halves favours us on the scoreboard at the end of the match :grinning_face:

No it doesn’t. I hate the Aussie way of preliminaries etc while some teams rest

I prefer it. Some benefit to having won during the round robin stage. Top teams can still do a "Souths 1989" and not make the final.

Thank you captain obvious.

@Stargazer No Valetini for Brumbs
@KiwiMurph I was about to post that aswell. The Brumbies look a lot less menacing without him there.
Jahrome Brown on the bench aswell which is surprising.

@Bones what makes you think that?

@Bones what makes you think that?
The same as me? Procter Love and Rayasi in the team ahead of him.
Brumbies are nowhere as potent without Valetini. -

@Bones interesting selections. Most of them I agree with but would have probably started Sullivan over Proctor, Delany over Gibson, and Goosen over Savea.
Sangster also misses out after a strong season which is a shame for him.
Hopefully that team can do the business, plenty of firepower with Aumua, Iose, Love and Goosen to come on late.

@Canes4life Sullivan over Proctor would seem a no brainer to anyone, even stranger that he hasn't made the bench. Got to be unavailable.
Still, nice to not have pages of Prinsep moaning, even Blackwell has been given a pass...

@Bones funny thing is we’ve picked an even smaller 6 than Prinsep, I’m not too worried though with Valentini not being there.

@KiwiMurph with that loose trio we should atleast win a few turnovers though.
