Brown will go to Japan IMHO otherwise he would have signed by now and Nick may also head North. Stubbs has the best chance of the three ;)

After watching the game I would bracket the following:
#6 Cotterall / Hodgson
# 7 Alcock / New talent to understudy Alcock with Hodgo as backup
# 8 McCalman / McCaffrey
Again we have a strong back 3 and overall pack but we are short on backs - we have bits and pieces , we need the remainder of the pieces and some backup.
What did you guys think of Corey Brown I thought he was our best outside back by far against the lions

The Honey Badger is off to Montpellier isn't he?
^^ nothing offical about a move from anywhere.
It would just be silly for him to leave Aus right now. 2 years till the RWC and Digby gone he is primed to take the 11 spot.
I think If Bager stays in Aus he may well be in a Red jersey next year.
Those informed sources, Muddly?
HB was born in NSW, brought up in QLD, spotted and brought over for the Perth Spirit and stayed for the Force. He could have allegiances anywhere, but if he's been tipped by the ARU to play for a 'top Australian side' to further his Wallaby chances then I'll be narked off.
No Sheikh. I Made a comment at the start of the season thinking he would go their and now that Digby is gone it only supports my thoughts. IMHO. No facts and I hope to god I am wrong!
Corey brown was fast no doubt but he was toilet in defence, slipped off way too many hits resulting in more defenders being dragged in. and the overlaps out wide. Even the try line tackle he attempted was poor (though was good that he got there at least)

definately needs some practice in positioning.
Had a quick chat to him post match, was excited about the his first Pro game against someone as good as the Lions, he also reckoned he was absolutely shattered!
I wouldn't blame him for that much of the positioning. So many defenders were getting sucked in by the Lions that it wouldn't have mattered where he was.
Zack holmes pretty impressive for the brumbies tonight! Excited to see him for the force next year..

looks like Prior is a kicker too.. how consistent im not sure but he looked comfortable..
Im having a stab in the dark and saying Lachlan McCaffrey.
Yep I thought both Holmes and Prior looked good last night. Combined well to give good go forward and got their backline working. They got almost 40mins together and were certainly up to super rugby level.
I would definitely bring Zac into the starting 10 possie. Don't think Prior has the wood on Alby though. Looks like he might be first reserve for a while longer.
