The Reds enjoyed another succesful pre-Super Rugby season victory when they beat the Brumbies by 38 points to 5.
The Brumbies score was flattered by a late try by Mike Harris around five minutes before full time.
The Reds scored the first points of the match with a try by Ed quirk and dominated the rest of the match and led 24-0 at half time.
For the second half the Reds made seven changes to their team but continued to have the upper hand and although they conceded Harris try the Reds scored their final try just on full time when Dom Shipperley went over.
