The chance for the Brumbies to wrap up the conference but this could be seen as a danger game against the Brumbies bogey side. Add in the short week after flying back from Argentina and it could be closer than most think.

Ben Alexander was to play in his 143rd game for the Brumbies but got injured at training during the week. 2 other changes on the bench - Staniforth and Ah Wong in.

Nick Briant will be the ref.

Our team will be out tonight if history tells us anything. Aside from Sean, think we can field the same team from last week. Hopefully, LT is back and could slot into lock or 6.

Wondering when JD is back?

personally i would have persisted with JG-B, he at least looks like a 10 and tries to tackle even if pretty ineffectual. they have nothing to lose by blooding the young blokes and letting them develop. the 10's have suffered playing outside Stirzaker and Meehan and behind a pack with little or no go forward most of the time.

If I had anything to do with the Brumbies' attack plan, I'd have Tom Banks looking for Volavola at every opportunity, where-ever he might be standing/hiding.

I maintain that giving Reece one game at 10 would be interesting, bringing Jonah into fullback...

Nah, give Bip 15 minutes at stand off in the 2nd half before you pull little red.

If it were the start of the season I'd agree. As it is I don't see much point, may as well give VV and JG-B some more time.
