Weeks is a huge loss and BA will have an absolute picnic against Kennedy. I'm tipping the Brumbies based on this alone.

BA is lucky his mate Walsh isn't the ref. So is Hoiles, who came across as a bit arrogant on the rugby club last night.

Maybe but where are the Brumbies going to score their tries?

They showed against the Tahs their counter attack entails mid field high balls or going for touch.

So if you play , like the Tahs, for field position, you get the ball back.

Looking forward to Ioane vs AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) and Higgers vs Elsom.

chuck in FaingaaS v Moore and Fainga'a A v Smith I reckon. And Fainga'a S&A v Fainga'a C.

Chambers v Morty was tasty too though unlikely to happen.

Houston v Hoiles

There's match ups everywhere.

And just on that team, it's not necessarily a bad thing that J. Kennedy is starting; Weekes isn't going to be around next year, this is a good opportunity to see what he has got and for his development. Weekes is a loss, but Kennedy is a positive for the future.

I thought Giteau vs Cooper is the obvious one.

Good match-ups have to include players that have exciting and comparable skill sets, it can't just be an exhibition of a man kicking a dog. :fishing

we've all overlooked Brackin Karauria-Henry v Brando Vaaulu

Mmm true, Va'aulu's defense vs Karauria-Henry's attack. Interesting that one, both young up and comers.

How bout Jerry Yanuyanutawa vs Greg Holmes, they'd have to be the two loosest props in the country..

Back to the serious stuff, the 2nd biggest match up (apart from the crab vs the magician) is Hynes vs AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), and could determine who gets the first shot at wallaby full back.

Valentine's performances from here on in are looking to get him a spot in the Wob's squad.

Good to see some young local talent coming through and getting a chance.. Fainga'a, Coleman and Stubbs have each dominated at club level.

Interested to see how Robbie Coleman goes if he gets a chance at 12/10, suppossably quickest in Brumbies squad over 40m and was impressive in the Aust Sevens team.
