Brumbies step up a gear

Brumbies step up a gear

22 Feb 2013

The Brumbies scored 18-unanswered points in the second half to claim a bonus-point 30-13 win against the Rebels in Melbourne.

The Rebels made the most of their opportunities in the first half and defended well to take a 13-12 lead into the break.

However, the Brumbies dominated the second stanza, with Jesse Mogg, Clyde Rathbone, Ben Mowen and Chris Coleman scoring tries.

The Brumbies now lead the Australian conference after back-to-back wins.

    Skop will blame Jake the Snake’s coaching for the Brumbies being behind

    Oh my God, when the Force, who lost to the **** Rebels, thump the entitlement Kings, this weekend, I wonder how Koe and his chums Solomons and the Watson family will put a positive spin on ther outcome. We watch with baited breath.

    Ai Richards Ferguson again. The correct way to report the score is as follows – home team vs visiting team. Meaning 13-30. Exactly as it would show in the scoreboard at the stadium or on your tv.

    I thought the NZ game was fast and gave the perception it was good running rugby…. But both sides gave each other space to run. No team did not want to shut the space down.
    There was not focus in back line defense.

Keo.co.za has always promoted uncensored views, but has never tolerated racist or crass outbursts. Come on guys and girls. If you can't moderate yourselves or each other then I am going to be forced to regulate the posts and enforce a registration process for comments. The choice is yours.
