    Pleasing to see that the WF talent scouts are doing their job. It can't be "poaching" if Swain is "off-contract".

    Western Force 2024

    Engagement usually follows a getting-to-know period. Most people I know have zero interest in Instagram (or TikTok etc) Most are still working for a living and not spending all day on social media.

    Too slow for 7s and taking the place of another young player.

    Western Force 2024

    This is only the 2nd year for Simon Cron, his coaching panel and support staff. They are building a squad, mostly based on developing young talent. The average age of the 36 players named is <25yo. There are still some spots to fill (THP, Hooker & Lock) but it seems the WF is reluctant to take...

    Over-spent for a poor performance - in the real business world the RA boss would be most likely demoted or sacked. Raises the question as who is in control as it should be the CEO not the Chairman.

    SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) 2023 and the limited Test matches exposed the lack of talent and skills of the current group of available Australian players. The lack of impact/availability of the OS players selected did little to help the situation. Jones had little to work with and I can understand his frustration once...

    Western Force 2024

    I'm interested in the squad announcement on 9 November. By my count we currently have 34 players signed for 2024 or beyond with Siosifa Amone and Henry Robertson yet to be confirmed (unless I missed the announcements). If I include the latter the average age of the squad is just under 25yo...

    Rugby World Cup 2023

    Much the same as life every day in Australia where it seems normal to be called a “White Cxxx - always was, always will be our land” but calling someone a “Black Cxxx” - even when usually justified- is considered ‘racist’ by the social elite/virtue signallers. Nothing to see here - move on.

    RWC: Pool C - Wallabies v Fiji - Monday 18 Sep 2am AEST

    Very easy for McReight to not get penalised when he’s late to every ruck. Fans need to chill-out. Can we just come to the reality that we do NOT have the talent on the park - as confirmed by the SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) results. More than happy for Eddie to be blooding players for 2027 Need to rebuild from the...

    Western Force 2024

    No real surprise. Have really enjoyed Toni's contributions but he too became extremely frustrated by his inability to stay fit enough to stay on the park. He's missed about half the games over the past 2 seasons. Wish him every success with MLR. Perhaps this announcement was delayed until Toni...

    If this happens it's sure to rock the boat and be good for Australian rugby (not just HQ/NSW) A bit of accountability will do RAu no harm at all.
