Good morning :)

Stirling Mortlock suffered medial ligament damage according to the MRI scan results, so he can expect to miss up to 4 weeks of Super 12 rugby. Matt Giteau is still out with his broken hand, and George Gregan will be in London playing the tsunami charity match this weekend. Another 'new look' Brumbie side to take on the Bulls this week - here's the squad.

The Reds travel over to Auckland for their Round 2 match. The Courier-Mail tells us that David Nucifora has invited Red's coach Jeff Miller, Miller's assistant coach Anthony Eddy- who used to work with David at the Brumbies, and the Red's manager and David Nucifora's brother Garry, around for a BBQ on Saturday. Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall???

Meanwhile, the Blues have announced their team for Friday night. Yikes! The Reds flew out this morning for the Shaky Isles - Drew Mitchell will take Chris Latham's place at Full Back as Latham will be in London as well for the tsunami game.
