@Winger Billy Proctor has had huge mins, good chance to rest him in this game, same with Josh Moorby and Peter Lakai, even though the latter is on the bench. I'd say more guys will take a seat next week but they are probably ensuring there is enough quality on the park for this game and next week's game to get the job done.
The Brumbies will be massively boosted by the return of Alaalatoa and Ikitau. I expect them to be hugely improved compared to last week. If the Canes win this week and next, they've almost guaranteed a top 2 position. Then that game against the Blues will likely determine who finishes in top spot.

Update: Proctor has bursitis in his knee so is being rested this week.
Also, the Canes sent an SOS to Dane Coles but unfortunately he won't be playing for the Canes this year after also suffering an injury playing for his Japanese club.

OK so the team needs another hooker.
Vernon Bason was the Hunters replacement hooker (Maybe too young though)

Good start Brumbies.

@KiwiMurph lol how many tackles have the Crusaders loosies missed this year. A couple missed tackles and now he’s not upto international standard. Give me a break.

Cripes are you defensive (pun not intended). It's an area for Iose that's always been a work on - that's all.

Brumbies blatantly killing our ball.

Good try by the Canes. Lineout operating nicely
-
@Canes4life Yeah a bit of an overreaction, the boy is still quality.
Good hit back from the Canes.
