Brumbies defeat Reds in Super Rugby opener

Brumbies defeat Reds in Super Rugby opener

Full back Jesse Mogg scored two tries for the Brumbies, as they defeated Australian conference rivals Queensland 24-6 in their Super Rugby opener at Canberra Stadium last night.

In a contest that rarely reached any great heights, the Brumbies dominated the Reds at the breakdown to claim a well deserved win.

The Reds, who finished 2012 as the Australian conference winners, were let down by a lack of discipline and were punished by referee Andrew Lees.

The winning margin could have been even greater but the Brumbies goal kickers had an off night, missing four penalty attempts and failing to convert Mogg's first try.
