No shying away from the challenge, the Brumbies are eyeing a drought-breaking title as the ACT outfit once again enter the Super Rugby season as Australia's best hope of wrestling back the silverware from New Zealand. The perennial Australian benchmarks have fallen at the penultimate stage of the past three full Super seasons, either side of the pandemic-affected competitions, and last made the final back in 2013.
For all their promise, the Brumbies haven't won a proper Super Rugby crown in 20 years, with the Crusaders, Hurricanes, Highlanders and Blues between them reigning since the NSW Waratahs' only triumph a decade ago.
