Brumbies taking lessons out of Blues defeat

The Brumbies remain confident they can flip the result of last month's thriller in Canberra as they prepare for their semi-final clash against the Blues.

As they prepare to head to Eden Park, Brumbies flyhalf Noah Lolesio admitted they can't afford another ill-disciplined performance, finding themselves down 16-5 on the penalty count.

The Brumbies are hopeful Len Ikitau will be cleared to play after he was red-carded for a high tackle during last week's win over the Hurricanes.

However, even if he is ruled out, Lolesio remains confident whoever is selected can step up and fill the void.

The Crusaders face the Chiefs at 7.05pm Friday and the Blues will play the Brumbies at 7.05pm Saturday.
