The Brumbies and Hurricanes meet to decide the last Super Rugby Pacific quarter-final of the weekend. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:45pm AEST.

The Brumbies have received a reality check in the last three weeks after a flying season up until that point.

It never feels right to say a team needs to lose but in the Super Rugby format it wasn’t the worst thing to have a couple of losses in a row and still have a home final to show for it.

The last loss came at the hands of a spirited Moana Pasifika who finished their season on a high with just their second win.

The defence has been a bit of a concern but the Canberra side will hope that inclusions this week will strengthen the key areas.

“We’ve had a big five weeks and didn’t get it right last weekend, but given we were a couple seconds from beating the Blues and had been getting good results before that Crusaders match, we’re confident and excited to get back in front of our members, fans and families,” Brumbies coach Dan McKellar said.

Tom Hooper has been named at blindside flanker with fellow Brumbies pathways product Luke Reimer selected at openside.

The remaining changes to the Brumbies starting selection also come in the pack with James Slipper and Folau Fainga’a rotating into the front row at loosehead prop and hooker respectively.

The Hurricanes also stumbled into the finals with a loss to the Force.

TJ Perenara makes his 150th appearance for the club while lock Isaia Walker-Leawere and Blake Gibson return.

“It’s good to have Izzy back in after being unwell. He’s a big man, and we’re going to need the big strong men [against the Brumbies] in the forwards around set piece, so now that he’s back to 100% we’re hoping for big things from him” Hurricanes coach Jason Holland said.

“TJ becomes the first ever Hurricane to play 150 games for the Club. This is a phenomenal achievement and epitomises TJ’s commitment to our Club.”  

“As a group we are in awe of what he has done for the Hurricanes and we are desperate to make it a memorable night to do this milestone justice,” he said.
