Surely that's the death knell for Lolesio's RWC dream.
I don't think so, he should get good game time still and it's likely to be a close game, so there's every chance he's on the field to setup a winning try or kick a winning field goal (assuming Lonergan has the tee at that point). He may need the Brumbies to win to get another week to push his case though.

Toole will be a big loss, and the Brumbies low on decent outside back replacements at the moment...

I thought Sapsford might've pipped Tua for the 12 jersey after last week if Toole wasn't out.

I also wonder if the Brumbies might be better served going with the same backrow combinations as last week with Hooper at 6 and shifting to lock in the second half, and bringing Samu and Reimer off the bench.

Come on Slim, Carter Gordon missed a week due to concussion but went straight back to 10 because he's the best we have. No shame admitting ya boi is on the outer.

^ slight faves on TAB ($1.77/$2.00) last I checked which I found a touch surprising but obviously you're not the only one feeling confident.

I'd say the Canes would have to easily be favourites going into this match based on both teams respective form...
