[Tex]

Chiefs are pretty elite, hey. Deserved winners but Brumbies pushed it pretty close. Hopefully McKenzie's injury isn't too serious.

They scored 6 tries against the chiefs at home, no kiwi side has managed that. Getting Feliuai, Valetini and Lolesio back will help.
Comps arent won in round 3.

Is anyone actually writing the Brumbies off?

I’ve seen a bit of banter about, but not sure anyone is talking them down too much.

Shouldn't be. hardest start to the season of the Aus sides at least. They'd be devestated about the Force result but that showing v the Chiefs would have towelled up most others especially in Canberra.

I think we have a lot of other Aus fans feeling happy about their side so far but we still need to kick someone and the Brums have lost 2 in a row.... As a Tahs fan theres a huge chance in a month they could be on a 4 match losing streak whilst the Brums could be at .500 with not the worst run home.

Just got around to watching the Mini game of this.

Jeez Brumbies very easily could have won that. I thought they looked good in the Mini snippets.

Da Fuq was Sapford doing in D during that game? Stay bloody connected at 12... basic stuff. That was 2 tries right there.

8 points gone off the kicking tee as well. I actually think the Chiefs got away with one here. Couple of lucky tries to them. Plus Brumbs held up at the half.

Plays like a Winger in the centres. His size makes us think oh yeah he can do it but he's a decent Winger IMO with the ability to cover others IF needed but preferably not start.

That was basically my take over 80 minutes too. Brumbies did plenty of good stuff. Just had some flat spots & defensive mistakes and the Chiefs are very good and took full advantage.
