Should be a cracker.. Maybe Neville and FF (Folau Fainga'a) got dropped for the piss poor lineout.

Little doubt the lineout will be stronger with Nick Frost in the starting side.

Also looking forward to seeing CFS in Brumbies' colours.

Yeah, one of my first thoughts but I hope not. On second glance it seems balanced and you have to find opportunities (acknowledging the risk) to give minutes to the wider squad to make sure you have depth.

I am hoping that some of the rationale in this is a also a combination of seeking some speed and young legs as it will be fairly high paced and taxing.

Seems sportsbet is tipping a huge upset too. they haven't published any try scorer markets and have the brumbies at $1.01

Two days of rain has affected the crowd. Ground looks good though. If it doesn’t rain more than the current light sprinkling it will be perfect rugby conditions. Clouds look threatening though.

Valentini just tonked it 50 metres .. looking like it could be a long day for Fiji.

Pretty poor lineout again

Turn the sound down.
Since when do you need so called experts telling you stuff you can see with your own eyes?

Fijians didn’t do their homework on Banks more often that not doesn’t pass after he makes a break. Your best bet is to tackle him and not worry about a pass.
