The Brumbies hosted the Lions at the Canberra Stadium, Canberra late this morning. This is the match thread for discussion of the game. The match was broadcast on SuperSport 1 on DSTV in SA. The Brumbies won 24 / 13 in wet weather conditions, failing in the process to score the 4-try bonus point. The Lions defence on the day was better than we have seen from them all season, so far. One must however take into account that the weather is a great leveller.

A turkey was chatting with a bull. “I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree,” sighed the turkey, “but I haven’t got the energy.”
“Well, why don’t you nibble on some of my droppings?” replied the bull. “They’re packed with nutrients.”
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, there he was, proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the tree.
Moral of the story: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there. 😉
