WHAT DOES BRUMBIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

brumbies

Brumbies

The Brumbies are a Super Rugby rugby union team based in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory and named for the wild horses which inhabit Canberra's hinterland. The team represents the ACT and southern New South Wales regions. The Brumbies were formed in 1996 to provide a third Australian franchise for the newly formed Super 12 competition. It was predicted that the Brumbies, made up of so-called 'reject' – players not wanted by the other two teams – would perform poorly. Since then, they have enjoyed more success than all the other Australian teams combined, reaching five finals and winning two. The Brumbies play in navy blue, white and gold kits. The team plays at Canberra Stadium in Canberra and is currently coached by former Wallabies fly-half Stephen Larkham who shares the coaching duties with Laurie Fisher who is the current Director of Rugby after Jake White unexpectly left the club in September 2013, with two years still left on his contract.
