Didn't even realise baby Callan was with the squad.
Buggered without Gordon. Dog shot on him last game kept him down. If he was at 10 that's almost our best backline of the season. Has Proctor been the biggest flop signing? Maybe Maunder.
Will we get Lukhan back for the finals?

Happy to see Toole back too.
Nervous for Kellaway to go up against Wright though, boys against men type stuff.

Few things to like: Vaihu + Lancaster wing pairing is fun, and Kailea, Tuttle and Kells back is good. Interesting to see Callan given an opportunity: he played against the axemen and on the Japan tour then disappeared from any formal or informal squads. Probably not too surprising given Maiava might have been the last non-front row forward standing
CG out makes the game extremely rough. Add that to Kemeny missing plus both Proctor and Mafi still absent and I can't see a positive result.

Toole and Muirhead on the wings may actually blunt Wright's game - he's looked his best this year with Sapsford there to give him a few more options at the back and take some of the pressure off.

Sapsford providers a lot of cover from the bench and Andy has been pretty good of late.

I’m keen to see Hooper really get into being a mobile robust second rower. He has more grunt than Frost.
Post-match concussion test - failed.

I'm thinking of watching this one from the city. I know lots of people have their fav location in CBD and I've been to most of them but I was thinking of supporting our sponsors and going to Bell. Anybody watched the game from there? If so what's the atmosphere like?

Can anyone recommend a pub in Sydney around the Surry Hills/Paddington area that usually puts the Super Rugby on and will probably be playing this game? I have ventured north up the Hume for the weekend but don't want to miss my weekly dose of Brumbs

Brums v Rebels in Sydney on a Friday.... There's a joint on the corner of Moore Park Rd and Driver Ave, Moore Park. Don't know if they can afford Stan Sport though.
Winghaus Moore Park use to have a fair bit of the Rugby on. Otherwise it's sports bars in the CBD or Irish pubs are the best chance.
