Wales Team for the Brumbies match... Faletau out of tour with broken hand means Delve is on the Bench

First topic message reminder :

WALES: Liam Williams; Harry Robinson, Andrew Bishop, Ashley Beck, Aled Brew; James Hook, Rhys Webb; Paul James, Richard Hibbard, Rhodri Jones, Alun Wyn Jones (Captain), Luke Charteris, Josh Turnbull, Justin Tipuric, Aaron Shingler

REPLACEMENTS: Ken Owens, Rhys Gill, Ian Evans, Gareth Delve, Lloyd Williams, Rhys Priestland, Alex Cuthbert



Rob Howley says

"We are a game down, but we still have all to play for in this series and Tuesday night is the perfect opportunity for this squad of players to move on," said Wales head coach Rob Howley.

"We have one or two bumps and bruises and we are expecting players to 'back-up' after playing a tough Test match and go out there 72hrs later and play for their country.

"But that is exactly what touring is all about. It will be a test of character for the likes of Luke (Charteris), James (Hook) and Alun Wyn (Jones) who all made significant contributions on Saturday."

The Aussie commentators have gone from saying how well the brumbies were doing to souding well unhappy. now the brumbies are valiant in defence

Hook converts to make it 7-3

No doubt if Hook has a stormer in this game, the anti Hook brigade will say it's just an exhibition match.

Just to remind everyone you can watch the Heineken Cup pool draw online in 20mins at http://www.ercrugby.com/

And the pro Hook brigade will probably say that it was a performance to rival Dan Carter.

The neutral Hook supporters will say that he probably deserves a shot at the 10 shirt if Preistland can't improve.

Brumbies penalty hits the posts.

Try for Wales!!! Tipuric!

Hook picks up a loose ball offloads to Beck onto tips try 12-3

Should be 14-3 to Wales

Tries - Hook, Tipuric

14-3 HOok converts

TRY ! Tips scores and Hook converts

Sounds like Beck, Tipuric and Hook are playing well then, thats good news.

Follow Twitter, go on Walesonline or the Aussie radio station

I cant get the radio feed to work

How the hell do you get the Aussie radio to work?

Got the updates via WalesOnline.

try changing to windows media player

Radio is cutting out for everyone I think.

Wales v powerful at scrumtime, and very positive in approach, 6 mins to break

Why couldn't we do this on Sat ? I know its only a club but our scrum should of had theirs and we should of kept ball in hand or kicked for territory - our lineout was brilliant

Radio coverage is fine for me,

dont think I've heard Robinson's name mentioned yet.

Penalty Brumbies, 15m out right in front.

Prob will if Brew comes off

14-6

Tbh this is a weakened Brumbies team, with many Aussie club players who Jake White has just signed. We better be dominating them in the scrum or something isn't right

And the Aussie scrum is nowhere near as weak as it is perceived to be.

Brew is off, Cuthbert on

I hope nobody passes to him and he walks everywhere

Brew has come off, Cuthbert on.

Try Wales

Crap, i hope Howley's got Byrne's number on standby!

Somebody passed to Cuthbert! Stop it! He might get injured!

Beck creates a try in the corner, not sure who scored it - Charteris maybe.

Is the HEC draw televised?

Beck, Webb, Hook and Tipuric are really putting their hands up

On speed dial under "1"

Conversion missed. 19-6 Wales at halftime.

There's 6 debutants for the Brumbies. Those are guys who're out of Sydney or Melbourne amateur club rugby, including a couple of 18 yo prospects. So standards wise it's probably somewhere in between playing Llanelli in the Welsh club comp and playing the Scarlets in the Rabo.

I know that it's being streamed (legally!) on the ERC website
