What happens if 8 Beats 1? Is that it for 1?

Good news on Schoupp, but I hope Slipper is the only rested player for this game.

The Force have dropped off after that last game but usually bounce back at home. Except for a couple of dubious ref calls earlier in the year, the Force would have had the Brumbies in Canberra. Brumbies to win if they play their best. Would want to going into the finals.

I always like to see the Force do well and normally would support them over the Brumbies, but the Brumbies are still a chance of finishing top 2 right? Albeit relying on some upsets? If so I hope they get up - I’d love to see an Aus team with the best possible finals run.

My sentiments also although if Brumbies don’t beat the Force it wouldn’t go well in the finals. The Kiwi sides are much tougher.

Wow a few changes there for the Force. Wasn't sure if Coxon was still around or was just injury cover. He was good previously but disappointed to see Hoopert missing. I like the second row and backrow, Will Harris deserved to be dropped, has been disappointing. Going to miss Donaldson. I would still prefer to start Spink and Kuenzle on the wing, assuming Tiatia not available

Is Donaldson injured?
EDIT
Seems so
"Max Burey will start at fly-half with Wallaby Ben Donaldson to miss due to a tight groin while front-rower Ryan Coxon also comes into the XV with Harry Hoopert unavailable due to a calf injury."
