Think both Jooste and Thompson had time at No 10 in the NRC. Jooste also played 15 when Thompson was at 10.

He had been fairly heavily criticised for his (poor) performances most of the year, and playing @10 I don't think was a desire at all, on top of not being his thing in the 15 man format. Even playing 10 in the 10's he had gone off the boil. So I think he wanted to avoid the 10 jersey TBH and his NRC form solidified that. Thus the jump to the Force to play @12.
Yes. Against the Aus Barbarians in Canberra on Jan 28 then against the Waratahs in Mudgee the week after
Have a look at some of the previous trial match reports on the main page. Don't need a full on match report just who played well, who had a shocker, any injuries, any other interesting take aways (combinations, tactics etc).

A touch filthy, maybe. Born a Qld-r I was. At the end of the day though, its about how to get a report from Mudgy.
I have 4wd commitments on that weekend. Cant tell you how much I'm trying to find a way to Mudgy.
Reckon it could be a straight highlight for 2017. Simon, just feckng enjoy it!

Don't worry, I'll be objective - I hate all you southern bastards equally!
The missus is from Mudgee but went to uni in Canberra so she usually cheers for the Brumbies on the rare occasions I can get her interested enough to watch a game. Although she frequently refers to them as the "Canberra Brumbies" so you can see what I'm up against here.
Expect interim captains during the 2 trials and Brisbane 10's then a decision to be made on which player(s) will get the nod in the leadup to the first Super Rugby game.

Thought Nic White was close to MOTM for Montpellier v Bordeaux on the weekend. Any sign of him returning to the Brumbies prior to the RWC?
Not sure. Heard his name linked with Exeter too.
He probably knows where he stands with Cheika and if he's in until the RWC, we may not see him in Aus before then.

He put in a really good performance; front on defense (especially against his opposite) and cover defense were very good, he was especially fast to the breakdown on most occasions and his passing off the ground and particularly his ability to find the right runner were exceptional, and to top it off, not a box kick I can think of. He did post one or two penalty goals too when Franz Steyn was in the sin bin.
Lots of familiar faces in the game; Moggy, Joe Tomane, Steyn, Pierre Spiers, Nadolo, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), Jannie du Plessis, and a couple more.
