Baie Agstemanne wat kaptein is die jaar…. Spies, Delve, Mowen, Read, Luke Watson….
Brumbies penalty and an excellent kick for touch
Rebels steal the Brumbis overthrow in the lineout
Swinging arm by Inman of the Rebels, penalty Brumbies
Pocock loses his binding in the maul, re-attaches and cops a relieving penalty to the Rebels
Another Rebels penalty… and the Skinhead gets an opportunity to goal again
Bad miss left…
Rebels backline loitering close to offside the whole time with umbrella defence… getting away with it
Rebels steal a vital ground ball near their own line
Skill levels good for early season
Rebels penalty for the Brumbies not rolling away
Decision not to kick for goal… attacking lineout in the Brumbies 22
Another Rebels penalty… and a final team warning to the Brumbies

O’Connor kick charged down but safely dotted down for a 22 drop out
Mogg almost through again…. and then Rathbone scores.
TMO to check if he stepped out
THAT is a try!
Rebels 13 / 12 Brumbies
Rattlebones druk.
Jesse Mogg has blistering speed and steps well… electric!
How’s that for a surname… FUGLIstiller… hehehe
I can imagine he sports the nickname, FUGLI
Come on Brumbies!
Penalty Brumbies, right on the halftime hooter, they will scrum
Rattlebones knocks.

Verkeerde besluit daar ?
Dink tog die Brumbies gaan oorneem na halftyd.
Jesse Mogg is just continuing his good form from last year! definitely one of the youngsters to watch this season.

Unfortunate to have a surname like that have to say.
