The Brumbies’ miserable South African tour is finishing up with a chance to finally log some points against the cellar dwelling Cheetahs.
Sadly coach Friend seems to already be making excuses, saying on the radio that the team’s ability to turn up for the game will be determined by the fate of the stricken Shawn Mackay (Had spinal surgery, still in an induced coma).
Anyway Mortlock has again been named in the side, maybe this week he’ll play?
