Cape Town - The Brumbies coaching staff have made one change to their side to play the Brumbies in Canberra this weekend.
South African-born Ruan Smith will replace Ben Alexander at tighthead prop which sees Alexander drop to the bench. Smith will earn his 50th Super Rugby cap after playing most of his professional career at the Force and the Brumbies.
When Stephen Moore runs out onto the pitch he will become the most capped Australian player, as he overtakes Western Force legend Nathan Sharpe as he will get his 162nd cap.
Christian Lealiifano will co-captain the Brumbies with Moore.
