Brumbies BP win. Drua have really been smashed by travel at this point.

Drua don't get back to back home games until week 12...

We kinda feel their pain in that regard

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Brums have had a brutal start and to sit there they are on the table shows the quality of the group. At least the Drua at GIO then Tahs in Sydney allows the players to be at home for a chunk following the hard start.

Moana in NZ then back to back home games. Hopefully a good period coming up for ACT.

Love the personalized warm up kit the Brumbies have.

Love a good tap move

Brumbies crowd a bunch of whingers! Fair penalty on the chip and chase.

 

[cyclopath]

Not a massive fan of the "shot duck" routine by the Drua player - definitely a penalty but a bit too Hollywood!

 

[bhim]

Len already showing that his performance last week was just a one off

 

[Shiggins]

Hooper looks absolutely huge

didn't realise Fiji players took dives. thought they were tough

 

[Shiggins]

Brumbies crowd a bunch of whingers! Fair penalty on the chip and chase.

he still took a dive. that's why they are booing

 

[Wilson]

Feliuai cannot catch a break this year

 

[Shiggins]

dead set. how big is hooper? these Fijian boys are big but hooper looks like the Hulk next to them.

 

[Shiggins]

longeron having a very good game. but a lot of the Brumbies are.
