Super Rugby 2012 Team of Round 5 has been named and there are plenty of new players in this team. Brumbies tearaway openside flanker Michael Hooper scored 575 points to be the highest scoring
www.testrugby.com points scorer, not bad for someone worth under $600,000. Hooper's performance inspired the Brumbies to a win over the Highlanders.
While Hooper was a new inclusion, there are plenty of regulars in this team including Nathan Sharpe, Johan Goosen and Willie Le Roux. Goosen, Hooper, Le Roux, Beauden Barrett, Shaun Treeby and Jacques Potgieter are all amazing bargains who made the Super 15 Rugby Team of Round 5.
There isn't the usual domination by New Zealand players this week with six South Africans and two Australians joining the four New Zealand players.
