From the Canberra Times
It was a flat performance from the Brumbies last night in front of 15,893 fans.
Shock! Horror!
How can the Brumbies survive in the long term with this sort of crowd figure. They are gone, gone I tell you. They will have to move to Melbourne with the Force.
agreedBrownie - amazing
Hodgson - amazing
Pelesasa - amazing
Shepherd - amazing
Cummins - amazing
BOKKE“Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White
What i've just written to foxsports - the rugby club :
May I start by saying, what a great team performance by the Force and particular Shepherd and Pocock with the win over the ACT Brumbies, Brumbies need Giteau urgently with Lili and the other 7 backline players seeming to be waiting for 2010 to come with favourite son Giteau and possibly D.Mitchell playing.
Phil Kearns - what an shocking call, 1st half the listeners couldn't hear Clark or Martin you were up and dancing all 40 minutes espically with Smith vs Pocock, 2nd half where did you go ? didn't hear anything from you nor any positive comments on the force till the 79th minute, even in the 75th minute you said and I quote "Although Brumbies aren't ahead, they're still the better team tonight"... all i am going to finish with is FORCE 4 points Brumbies 0.
I know i'm not going to get on the air with this / these comments, but the brumbies wont beat another australian team this year, if they do I'll eat my hat. they'll be fighting it out with the lions and cheetahs on that performance last night.
by the way keep up the good work "Clarkey" and "martin"... dont think i forgot anyone else.
5 points
How good was that! No better way to answer the critics than this.....Well done to JM and the boys.
Just happy to be here

Canberra good for one thing, to watch 80 minutes of Force to beat the brumbies... dont know about anything else ... maybe summernats car festival
A kick in this game is like a rather nasty alcoholic shooter, only as good as it's chaser...

Hodgson must have made 15 at least I reckon. he's becoming quite the enforcer :-) Glad to have hime starting at 6, even if we lose some height. I think he'll be a great replacement at 7 if the worst happens and Pocock heads home
They are early stats from www.score.com.au. They update the tackles and stuff later.
Er, so why did you post them, exactly?
