Super Rugby Pacific RECAP: Force snap 5060 day drought in stunning upset, Highlanders and Hurricanes post Saturday wins

That wraps up our live coverage from a thrilling Saturday of Super Rugby Pacific action.

We've had wins to the Hurricanes, Highlanders and Force - with the latter two huge upsets.

Thanks for joining us and stay tuned for all the fallout.

The Force have held on to shock the Brumbies 45-42 in Canberra!

They closed that game out expertly and now they celebrate in style.

It had been 5060 days since the Force last beat the Brumbies in the nation's capital.

"It's one of the great wins in the history of this team," Morgan Turinui says on Stan Sport.

The Force are now 2-0 and the Brumbies are 1-1.

The Force have regained the lead with 13 men!

The men from Perth are displaying immense courage and patience as their forwards hammer away at the Brumbies before hooker Brandon Paenga-Amosa eventually breaks through.

Yet another plot twist as the Force lead 45-42 after 75 minutes.

And now the Force are reduced to 13 men as flanker Nick Champion de Crespigny is yellow carded after repeated warnings from referee Ben O'Keeffe.

The visitors are in big trouble now as the Brumbies lead 42-38 after 68 minutes.

Force captain Jeremy Williams is sent to the sin bin for a nasty collision with Brumbies winger Andy Muirhead.

Williams was trying to charge the ball down.

"Gee that's a tough one. That's harsh. That shouldn't be a yellow card," Morgan Turinui says on Stan Sport.

Quade Cooper agrees.

The Brumbies lead 42-38 after 64 minutes.

Dylan Pietsch has a brace and now Charlie Cale does too as the Brumbies No.8 picks and goes to put the hosts back in front of this see-sawing clash.

It's Brumbies 42, Force 38 after 64 minutes.

The points keep flowing in Super Rugby Pacific.

And it's a beautifully worked set play as Force hooker Brandon Paenga-Amosa delivers an inside ball off a lineout win to set winger Dylan Pietsch on a path to the try-line for his second of the night.

Back and forth we go as the Force lead again - 38-35 after 59 minutes.

The Brumbies are in the flow now and Corey Toole has scored a nice team try down the left flank.

Len Ikitau and Andy Muirhead displayed slick hands to put Toole in space.

The home side leads 35-31 after 54 minutes.

Ben Donaldson boots the Force back in front with his first penalty of the night.

The visitors lead 31-28 after 49 minutes.

And just like that, the Brumbies are back on level terms as young Judah Saumaisue burrows over to score a try.

It's 28-28 after 48 minutes.

Tom Hooper won't return after failing his HIA.
