JOC (James O'Connor) or Tomane would be ahead of Cummins, surely. It won't matter come EOYT with Speight available.

Not bad for either team, no real benefit.

I remember Ita Vaea playing all three of the backrow in the last two years, will he be Pocock's backup? Or are we after a new openside? I think losing Coleman would be bad but not awful. Mogg having an average day this year has been just as good as Coleman having a good day at fullback.

Bulls at home probably the only realistic chance to beat the Crusaders if they keep their QF form going.

Apparently he's trying to convince France that they don't need him so he can stay. No Horwill or Genia = Big selection headache for captain, lock and scrum half. You'd have to think it would be Moore or Mowen for captain, maybe Nic White or Cooper as a dark horse. Starting locks will...

Dai bando I'm just taking that a mediocre Brumbies beat a pretty good Cheetahs side who, throughout the season, have been just under par with the Bulls. Brumbies can beat them.

Dai bando only way the Brumbies play the Chiefs is in a final - I hope you're right!

Sucks for the Cheetahs, apparently he has already put pen to paper.

Hugh Jarse Get your own finalists! They should have just gone with Friday instead of Sunday.

Oh......... yes.........

PaarlBok them be fightin' words! In all seriousness, whoever wins on Sunday then faces a pole vault over Everest in order to get to the final. I personally believe the Brumbies have more of a chance against the Bulls, but this match is too close to call.

Cheetahs have won 3/4 overseas, Reds 2/4, Crusaders 2/4, Bulls 1/4, Chiefs 2/4. Brumbies have won 6.5/8 at home, Cheetahs 5/8, Reds 6.5/8, Crusaders 8/8, Bulls 8/8, Chiefs 7/8.

3/4 overseas games too.

Yeah......... he's one of the two who might crack.........

NSW will send a squad to Argentina to play the Pumas twice. Touring squad: Peter Betham, Berrick Barnes, Mitchell Chapman, Cam Crawford, Dave Dennis, Bernard Foley, Pat McCutcheon, Rob Horne, Sekope Kepu, Matt Lucas, Brendan McKibbin, Drew Mitchell, Tatafu Polota Nau, Paddy Ryan, Jeremy Tilse...

I too have crazy doubts, but remember the Brumbies nearly beat the Bulls at Loftus last year. Fitness isn't a problem, crowd pressure will only hit one or two players. It is plausible, just not likely.
