Won't be going to this as I'm on a breweries tour, but hopefully a good crowd turns up for some afternoon rugby. Brumbies should win comfortably.
The best news is the beer supplier for Brumbies home games is Bentspoke. If you haven't had Bentspoke before, start with their Crankshaft.

that's not fair. not fair at all
Also i would get buckled at every game. That shit is tasty and packs a punch

@mariner4life with stadium mark-up it will probably be $20 a can.

yeah ouch
I saw the Superbowl drinks prices and it was like $19US for a beer.
-
Nice try Brumbies after a soft Force penalty.
Pleasing to see refs calling static mauls a lot quicker - hope that trend continues.
EDIT - fucking hell TMOs are a blight on the game - if it's not clear and obvious stay the fuck out of it.

Young Force 10 Pasitoa looks useful

Ex-ponies.
The Brumbies are just the dirtiest bunch of fluffybunnies. They should have either Swain or Neville yellow carded at this stage for cynical penalties. I'm up to the 30th minute, ponies 7-6

Well maybe $10 but still better than the shit you get at Sydney games
-
It's a physical, willing encounter tho. Fuck playing in that heat when fluffybunnies are smashing into each other and getting fired up.
-
Good try force.
And the brumbies score a maul try. Well I never.
Swain charge down led to that situation.
-
Prior's box kick charged down again. Jeez
-
Commentators so shit. Kahui runs the ball, commentators be like "KIHOOOOOWEEEEY"
-
@yeetyaah on the flip side, their impressions of Eddie Jones are on point.
-
Nice try there.
-
Bah, decent try there, but that will give the Brumbies the win.
-
Pretty entertaining second half tbh
-
WTF is up with the bright white sneakers on all the presenters? They're not 20 year old ladies.
-
Good game overall in terms of intensity. Why TF the played at 2PM instead of 4PM or later I will never know, given Canberra is in Australia, and has summer just like the rest of the country.
Force much better than last year but key errors - Prior getting charged 3 times, Fines-Leiliawasa had a poor period getting up to speed with the game, cost them a win. They'll challenge the Drua, Tahs, and Rebels for sure.
Brumbies... well they're the same cynical fluffybunnies they've always been, and were bloody lucky not to see yellow in the first quarter of the game. They've got good stocks and good coaching, but better refereeing across the competition would see them whistled off the park - always killing it under pressure, which is the reason they're the most penalised team in the comp.
It allows them to scream about their victimhood, so there's that.
-
Fair to say ,it was the game of weekend despite the first half being a bit of a grind ..a missed opportunity by the Force
