Brumbies 14 / 3
Brumbies are dominating the basic aspects of the game…
Scrums and line-outs…
Scrum Reds on their 10m kine

Well had to quickly check where I am on bru cause after this game I am going to fall on my butt again.
Brumbies just playing far better than the Reds.
GBS @ 29 I think you’re right there mate. Without the ball, the Reds forwards look out of kilter. It’s all Brumbies so far.
Brumbies killing the Reds at scrum time…

Blue Bird @ 48 Indeed, I have an excellent ozzie shiraz, although I’m becoming concerned that I might becoming somewhat typecast as one who always has a glass of red to hand. What do you think, BB???
46 – Hiya Blouste, Sorry frantically multitasking here…what have you got the Bulls to win by today?
I have gone for 15!!
Sorry if I am all over the place…

Oldie, can the Aussies make good wine ?
Know they are excellent with the “whine” 😆
53 – Old Griquas – Not typecast at all. However it is nice to picture you guys in different parts of the world, so you are down under, your day nearly over….relaxing with some great sport and a great ‘brew’….Beats a can of ‘Fosters’ !
I did like VB when I was there though!
Penalty Reds, Brumbies must put a check on their dicipline
