NIc White will Captain the Brumbies on Friday night against the Rebels.

Nic White will become the 12th Brumbies Captain this Friday night when the Rebels visit Canberra Stadium.

With Ben Mowen on duty for the Wallabies, White has been handed the Captaincy from Head Coach, Jake White.

Now in his third season of top-grade rugby, having made his debuts against the Reds in 2011, White brings energy, experience and enthusiasm to the role.
