Would be a bit insulting if the new bloke got the VC. Given the positivness around the Brumbies 2012 season they would be mad to change anything.
They gave the new bloke the captaincy last year so don't be surprised.
“[Selections] are already made up in my head. I don’t need to hide anything because all the players know we want to (sic) best side on the field now for training. We don’t have time to be swapping jumpers or positions at training,” White said.
Conditional to fitness, why not start the match vs Reds with Rathbone at 12.
Bit of a nothing tidbit really, but I ran into a couple of blokes in a pub in northern nsw over the new year. We got talking and they happened to be big into the rugby and had played premier rugby in Canberra I think. They said by far the most physical bloke they played against was Colby Faainga, and said that he just whacks people in contact despite being so young. Now I realise, these were just a couple of punters spinning a yarn - but it is still very exciting to think what kind of year Colby could have if he stays out of the sick bay.
