It looks like the Brumbies starting 15 will be: Owen, Moore, Alexander, Hand, Chisholm, Kimlin, Salvi, Vaea, Valentine, Giteau, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), Lealiifano, T Smith, Speight, McCabe


Nice to see they're finally going for some consistency in the backline...

Shame the numbers are all wrong...

Stormers:
15. Conrad Jantjes, 14. Gio Aplon, 13. Jaque Fourie, 12. Juan de Jongh, 11. Bryan Habana, 10. Peter Grant/Kurt Coleman, 9. Dewaldt Duvenage, 8. Nick Koster, 7. Francois Louw, 6. Schalk Burger (captain), 5. Andries Bekker, 4. Rynhardt Elstadt, 3. Brok Harris, 2. Deon Fourie, 1. Wicus Blaauw

Substitutes: 16. Tiaan Liebenberg, 17. Steven Kitshoff, 18. Anton van Zyl, 19. Duane Vermeulen, 20. Ricky Januarie, 21. Jean de Villiers, 22. Johann Sadie

Good to see Duanne get a rest from the bench. Grant still not sure, if he is ready Coleman will drop out.

Good to see de Jongh stays at 12. Deserves it. He was phenomenal against the Blues.

Paarl what's the go on this Coleman laaitie?

Havent saw much of him. Look OK the bits he had from the bench. He comes from the Matie , WP youth teams and Vodacom(played with Sadie, Koster last year, Cronje played 15 for WP Vodas) and look like he and Juan de Jongh spend some time together as a combo earlier. Look like the nippy type of 10.

Would have love to see Sadie plays more with him. Sadie understand space, pass more and is quick, Juan the better ball carrier and stronger defender. They should probably swop their 12 & 13 jerseys. Still think AC got it wrong and should have played Mossie from the bench. We need to cotton wool the two Bokke for the tests.

Wires crossed. Sam is the son of Dave Carter who played 6 or 8 for the Wallabies in the late 80's. He was on that tour to France when Horan and Little first combined in the centres for Oz in 1989, which is how I remember him strangely enough.

Bruce - you picked Sam Carter as a player of promise for Super rugby. Good spotting; am looking forward to him getting a run.

Thanks Lee, won't be making that mistake again!

5 Tests for Dave according to Jack Pollard's book, LG.

Young Sam has developed his game quite a lot since last year. He has real authority around the field and likes to carry the ball.

In the lineout he is poetry in motion. I'm much more a devotee of scrums than lineouts but I could watch him jump all day. He has wonderful elevation and can make bad throws look good.

speaking of lineouts, Bruce, do you have any involvement in the new machine in the Arena gym which was a complete mystery to me until a mate told me today that he'd asked and was told it was a lineout lifting machine?

it's hard to describe for others and I couldn't find any pics on the net either, but it looks unlike any piece of gym equipment I've seen.

Thanks Lee, won't be making that mistake again!

It's quite acceptable if you do. I don't get concerned unless I make the same mistake the 3rd or 4th time, but by that time I have probably forgotten the 1st two so I'm sweet.

I just have to remember that Paddy O'Brien is not a Tahs THP and Fitzpatrick was a hooker for NZ and not now for the Tahs.

I blame the Irish.

Hooper is joining the U20's on Sunday...

He's been given a couple of days extra in Canberra because the Brumbies are struggling with injuries...

that's pathetic that the Brumbies aren't letting him join the squad at the same time that they are all getting together. This could harm our World Cup chances and this UNDER 20 WC MUST BE PUT BEFORE ANY PROVINCE!
