Brumbies vs Chiefs - 2011R01

[Brumby Jack]

The main problem for the Brumbies (and no, I don't think it is Giteau) is that they lack the on field team nous that the old Brumbies had in their pomp. They had better players then but not everybody was a star, yet the team played with an admirable belief in each other and that if things weren't going too well they could, as a team, find the solution.

They have to learn to grind things out. They can't rely on opponents stuffing up as much as the Chiefs did.

Agreed LG. Back in the day they had Gregan, Larkham, Roff and Kafer to help run things and now with 'leadership groups' and the like some players outside that group might feel reluctant to express opinions to not tread on any toes.
