The Brumbies have published their pretty damn exciting team roster for the first game of the season against the mighty Queensland Reds:
The University of Canberra Brumbies have made just one change to the starting side which defeated the ACT XV last Friday night, with Henry Speight sliding onto the wing and Joe Tomane to the bench.
Speight came from the bench last week and made a positive impact against the Force in Darwin. He was the Brumbies and Australian Conference top-try scorer in 2012 and one of the club’s best finishers.
Nic White is starting and we’ll have to see how Matt Toomua goes at pivot (too much aimless kicking last season for my liking).
