The Plus500 Brumbies touring squad, to play the Stormers in Cape Town (20 April) and the Jaguares in Buenos Aires (28 April), has been confirmed following the 31-20 victory over the Lions at GIO Stadium in Canberra last night.  

Head Coach Dan McKellar has selected a 28-man squad for the tour, with both matches being shown live on Fox Sports in Australia, which includes reigning John Eales Medal holder, David Pocock.

The Brumbies backrow star has been recovering from injury since round four, and will be a welcome addition as the Brumbies look to march up the Australian conference. 

A strong Brumbies group also sees local products Tom Ross and Mack Hansen take their seats on the plane to South Africa, alongside their Gungahlin Eagles teammate Jahrome Brown who has been impressive in his cameos off the bench so far this season.
