The Brumbies beat a Queensland Reds side 18-31 in a Super Rugby warm up in front of a 4611 strong crowd at Ballymore stadium.
The Reds scored a late try which made the score a little more respectable for the Queensland side who managed to get Japanese international Ayumu Goromaru for the final ten minutes.
