IMHO, probably the Tahs would benefit from a cultural/organisational change - the NSW model is not delivering the expected success. The coaches picked in the lat few years all have strong NSW background, some players keep being selected when out of form, hard decisions rarely made. Some players...

Brumbies favourite ON PAPER, based on home advantage and Chiefs' list of absentees. Brumbies though have to turn up with no passengers and put the opposition away like in a sudden death game. Absence of Cruden great advantage.

Based on recent results, you'd say the Force are favourite to win. Big question is how they will handle their now "favourite" status. Play as the underdog has its advantages, with higher expectations come pressure and less room for mistakes. Hoping for an entertaining match.

Annoying thing is we can't complain about Welsh anymore

Nah, Reds with backs agaist the wall, playing at home, Walsh in the mix. Be prepared to see several yellow cards. If Cooper's on song, I'd say Reds by between 10 and 15.

That against the Highlanders....?:cool:

Be interesting to know what's the difference between a fair and an unfair advantage

Any idea when Sio will be fit to play again? Was sorely missed in the first 40 last saturday.

Tough one to call. Form would suggest the Brumbies. but form was also suggesting the Chiefs vs the Force. Hopefully a match of great intensity - good to watch.

Whether Folau plays or not - is it crucial to the Tahs' chances to win vs the Sharks? Would not think so. The Tahs want to win because the want the points, because they are going to smash the opposition, regardless of whether Izzy plays, or who the referee is. After watching the Sharks vs...

Hat off to the young Brumbies coming on and delivering gritty performances - Butler in particular a good find. Apart from the first match, the intensity on the pitch has been outstanding, and that helped the team over the line at times.Still making silly mistakes though leading to penalties...

Injuries a real headache ATM. Must have faith in the replacements.

Pocock, Auelua, Rathbone, Scott Sio, Henry Speight, Kuridrani, Leon Power and Christian Lealiifano out. Considering Auelua would a starter this year, this is 6 starters out. Brumbies will have to dig deep for this one. On the other hand, a good opportunity to see some new faces - be good for...

Difficult to predict. Brumbies slightly ahead due to home advantage.

Name the other four cards and why, then your argument is worthy of a reply.

Great victory from the Brumbies, no major drama for the Tahs. Season is long, plenty of points for the take, but the Tahs looked stumped for answers when their plan did not succeed in the fist half. When something doesn't work, you need leadership in the coach box & on the field to retake the...

Reds by 14. Genia and Cooper on fire again, back line oooozing class, breakdown too physical for the ponies, and a sharp and astute up and coming coach at the helm. No brainer.

Good to see you guys have moved on

Wonder why this things don't happen with the All Blacks.
