Great to see a young prop bursting onto the scene like this.[/one_third] [one_third last=”no”]

Powerfully anchored a dominant scrum – the Brumbies’ key weapon.[/one_third]
[one_third last=”no”]
4.Hugh McMeniman
His impact is just outstanding, week in and week out.[/one_third] [one_third last=”no”]

[one_third last=”no”]
7. Liam Gill
Huge impact before his injury – unfairly treated by ref. [/one_third]

8. Ben Mowen
Still hasn’t put a foot wrong this season as he continues to lead from the front.[/one_third]
[one_third last=”yes”]

10. Quade Cooper
Despite questions over his knee and confidence, showed more of what we remember.[/one_third] [one_third last=”no”]

Digby-like when he gets hold of the ball – always beating a tackle[/one_third]

12. Christian Lealiifano
Six goals and a pressure kick to win the match. Looking happy at the top level [/one_third]
[one_third last=”no”]
13. Adam Ashley-Cooper
Some old fashioned tradmark runs bringing back the meat pies. Doing the extra yards. [/one_third]
[one_third last=”no”]
14. Dom Shipperley
Back with the dangerous pace and bustle.[/one_third]
[one_third last=”yes”]
15. Israel Folau
