Interesting interview with Laurie Fisher on RoarTV http://www.theroar.com.au/2013/11/15/lets-talk-rugby-with-laurie-fisher/ According to Laurie, apart some soreness in the knee, Pocock is in "immaculate physical condition"

Alarm bells ringing....... http://www.canberratimes.com.au/rugby-union/union-news/brumbies-in-bid-to-keep-players-20131112-2xeq2.html

Probably need 3 or 4 days to do Laurie's hair before the announcement.

Could not disagree more with all the points raised here. There was talk about White getting a citizenship to coach the Wobs - by whom? hearsay. Last thing you can say about Jake is that he is not honest. He's demonstrated that he was not here for the right reasons? Wake up, this is...

Anyone knows if there's any truth in the Brums trying to recruit Jack Debreczeni from West Harbour

Hard to say who's gonna win the match. I was not a fan of Link getting the job, but I must admit I am favourably impressed by his selection of players on the basis of form, rather than reputation or provincial history. It's a good start. The Wobs look definitely a level harder that the sorry mob...

I'd say the Chiefs favourites 60/40 because they won it last year (experience), and because they play home. But if the Brumbies turn up to play, it is anyone's game..........

We've come so far, believe in it brother!

He recently said that in Australia he'll play only for the Brums. Things may be different in 12 months' time, however.

Did SANZAR provide an explanation for the changes?

He was a PITA for the Brumbies vs the Saders - hopefully just a one-off.

Looks like we have two underdogs in this one.

Didn't know he had. When was that.

Brumbies won't stand in the way of players who want to go (e.g. Crawford last year). If he thinks he would do better elsewhere, he should ask for a release.

The cold was brutal for those of us without thermals :cool:! Booing the opposition is poor practice, uncalled for. Cheetahs looked very good in defence and slick with the ball in hand. But then, most opposition teams look sharp versus the Brumbies, only for the Brums to end up with the win. Ugly...

Hold your horses (pun intended). Let's wait for Sunday afternoon before we start passing judgement.

Wheather/temperature/referee/day of the week/location of the snow line/ first or second scrum penalty - all meaningless if the players don't turn up on the day. All in the head. If they want it really bad, the Brumbies will win it. If not, its curtains.

I would be careful with bold predictions on this match - we all remember what happened with the Kings, and the Force at home are always a spirited team to beat. Brumbies need a bonus point win for a chance to top the final standings, the Force will be playing pressure free rugby, which...

Provided he is fit, and with Pocock out, Smith is the best 7 in the country. Why should he play only in the last 30.

Admitedly I am not a rugby tactician, but I suspect that the ordered, "percentage play- tactical kicking" Brumbies play may indeed prove to be a stern test for the Lions - if they Brums get the necessary possession to implement it.
