A PENALTY try on full-time sealed a valuable win for the Brumbies over the game Stormers in Canberra, although the damage was done earlier by Robbie Coleman.

The diminutive winger bagged a double including a sensational last-gasp diving effort in the 61st minute as the Brumbies notched their fourth win in succession.

Leading 18-15 as the clock wound down, the Brumbies were awarded a penalty try for repeated scrum infringements that gave them a fifth-straight win over South African opposition.

"It's really tough to play the Stormers, we went to Cape Town last year and got our arses handed to us so it was a really pleasing result," Brumbies skipper Ben Mowen said after the 25-15 win.

In a key play in the final quarter, Coleman chased down a Mowen grubber and managed to pick up and plant just before he was bundled over the touchline, punishing Stormers winger Kobus van Wyk who was shadowing the ball over the sideline.

"That's what we talk about, chase everything and never give up, I was just lucky enough to get a good bounce," Coleman said.

Stormers centre Juan de Jongh fended off rival Andrew Smith and charged over with four minutes remaining to make the score 18-15, but the visitors could not muster a match-winning play.

Missing a third of their automatic starters in Scott Sio, David Pocock, Christian Lealiifano, Tevita Kuridrani and Henry Speight, the Brumbies held firm in the grinding match and take momentum into next Friday's clash against the Rebels in Melbourne.

Coleman crossed for the first try after just nine minutes after Matt Toomua sliced through the defence and fed the speedster.

The Stormers regained the lead 10-7 in the 22nd minute when backrower Duane Vermeulen barged over from close range.

The pre-game loss of breakdown goliath Schalk Burger was a major blow for the Stormers.
