The Super Rugby season is set to kick off with a bang as the Valetini Brumbies and the Swinton Force prepare to renew their rivalry in the opening match. This will be the first time the two teams have faced each other since the 2017 Super Rugby season, and both sides are eager to get back on the field and prove their worth.
The Valetini Brumbies are coming off a strong season in 2018, where they finished second in the Australian Conference and made it to the semi-finals. They have been bolstered by the addition of Wallabies stars David Pocock and Tevita Kuridrani, who have both returned from injury. They will be looking to make a statement in their first match of the season, and prove that they are still one of the top teams in Super Rugby.
The Swinton Force have been in rebuilding mode since their 2017 season, but have made some key acquisitions in the off-season. They have signed former All Blacks captain Kieran Read, as well as former Wallabies winger Henry Speight. They will be looking to use these new additions to help them get off to a strong start in 2019.
This match promises to be an exciting one, as both teams have plenty to prove. The Valetini Brumbies will be looking to show that they are still one of the top teams in Super Rugby, while the Swinton Force will be hoping to show that they are ready to compete with the best. Both teams have plenty of talent, and this match could be a great indicator of how the rest of the season will play out.
No matter who comes out on top, this match promises to be an exciting start to the 2019 Super Rugby season. The Valetini Brumbies and Swinton Force will both be looking to make a statement and prove that they are still contenders in Super Rugby. It should be an entertaining match, and one that fans won’t want to miss.
