<p>Lots of talent in that team but worried about the inexperienced midfield combo.</p>

<p>And will be tested against a solid Wallaby combo in Toomua and TK.</p>

<p>Last season the Brumbies were very successful using the "rolling" maul to score tries. It's largely the same pack so I'd be expecting the same.</p> -
Ive been watching the Hurricanes preseason documentary on foxtel here is Aust which has got me excited about the start of the season. Plenty of new faces. While its a big hole to fill in midfield they have some decent options to try. Hopefully one of them comes off.

Hah, I like it! Saw the yellow and black jersey when I was home, that's definitely hideous. -

<p><strong>J Savea looks a little heavy </strong></p>
<p>The Canes jerseys are somewhat blinding - and is that even grass?</p>
<p>Leali'fano evens it uo at 3-3 so far</p>

<p>I was thinking the same thing. Unless they gave him a small outfit to wear. </p> -

<p>Anyone else finding the camera angles hard to watch. Either way wide so it feels like watching from the back of the stands on half way or low and zoomed right in so feels like you are watching from centre.</p>

<p>Thought I was the only one hahaha</p>
