Quick hands to Osborne out wide and he's pulled down just a metre out

It went forward off a Brumbies hand, scrum feed Highlanders

Sopoaga gets the match underway, early clearance to touch by Toua

The teams have made their way onto a very wet field, rain pouring down, tough conditions and kick off is just moments away

Come on brumbies

For some reason I sense an upset here. Going to be a tight game anyway

Welcome to Ultimate Rugby’s coverage of the Super Rugby Quarter Final match up between the Brumbies who host the defending champion Highlanders.
The Brumbies topped the Australian Conference with ten wins from their 15 matches. They are in a good run of form, having won five of their final six regular season games.
The Highlanders finished as runners up in the New Zealand Conference, winning eleven of their 15 fixtures. Like their opponents, they finished the season strongly, winning six of their last seven games.
These sides met in round 10 of the competition, with the Highlanders emerging 23-10 victors at home.
Extremely rainy and windy conditions are expected, so this one should be an incredibly tight affair.
