The ACT Brumbies are into the Super Rugby Pacific semi-finals after a 32-16 win over the Highlanders in Canberra.

They booked their place in the final four against the Blues after a second half surge.

The Highlanders put them under pressure early as they took a six-point lead before the break, only for the hosts to strike before and after the half.
