Brumbies should win this one, Landers too error-prone
Brumbies with a bonus point already. Jeepers they win this they go top of their conference, who would have thought?
Jake doing well there and not with big names either.
@ grootblousmile:
Would be great result for the saffer teams. Can’t let the Landers pull too far ahead.
