    Chiefs V Force - Round 13

    Well, at this point of the season and after looking at the Force line-up against the Chiefs, I guess the only reason why he got a plane ticket to New Zealand is that he needed a ride home. o_O I'm just curious to know why, if he's unfit to play at this level or has behavioural issues or what else.

    Western Force 2014

    I didn't follow much the Force last year. How was his season like? I remember he's always been a valuable player in Europe, although with a very fragile charachter.

    Chiefs V Force - Round 13

    :D Oh, finally he won a plane ticket! The pro is that he's going to want to play like hell (if he's worth it) in case he gets a spot on the field. I'm just too curious to see what he can do.

    Western Force 2014

    Rasolea is my favourite 13 in the current squad. Plus, he's very young and has room for improvement, I hope his expiring contract will be extended for the next seasons. Anyway, we should consider that Rasolea himself needs to improve and find his favourite position on the pitch (does he prefer...

    Western Force 2014

    Prior and Holmes are what we need: young, talented and with a lot of potential. It's very important to re-sign both Mafi and Cummins, the backline would sound very promising. Holmes could be the starting flyhalf (please don't tell me you really like SNK :p ) So, halves and backline: 9...

    Hurricanes v Force R10 19 April

    After seeing almost every Force match so far, I guess the main problem is the very conservative game plan the Force have. Sad to say, the Force can only win when the opposite team doesn't manage to score enough tries or kicks too many penalties/conversions outside the uprights. Carrying the ball...

    Force v crusaders

    I'm asking the same question since round one. And there's apparently no answer. CTM was presented with much emphasis and was supposed to be our regular inside centre, but he's never made the 22 so far. That's really strange, I can only guess he's had behavioural problems. Otherwise I couldn't...

    Western Force 2013

    As far as I know there was a rumor about that in the beginning of the season, but Mafi denied everything, so there's nothing official. I reckon he's playing better at centre than at flyhalf now, I don't see any reason why Force should develop his skill at 10 rather than keeping him improving at...

    Western Force 2013

    Maybe you're right, Morahan would be good for the Force. I have to say I had in mind a player like Mike Harris for the same reasons you wrote above. Plus, his kicking his very accurate and he can play as a flyhalf or centre as well. I don't know if he is off-contract anyway. Sounds good...

    Western Force 2013

    Just beacause we don't have a proper fullback. Don't misunderstand me, please, he is a good fullback and winger and would be an improvement considering the current squad. But I don't know if he's the fullback we really need. Anyway, to be competitive the Force need to renew part of the squad...

    Rebels force merge

    Both Alice and Adelaide are fighting like cat and dog to host this wondeful franchise. :D

    Western Force 2013

    James Hanson would be a very good choice, but honestly Morahan didn't fulfill all of the expectations that rugby enthusiasts had/have about him so far.

    Western Force 2013

    Sorry for Natahan, guys. I'd be happy with Kingi at the Force, but Mathewson is one of the best Force players at the moment so...you should put Kingi on the wing most of the time, otherwise you'd only have a disappointed (and probably expensive) good scrumhalf on the bench. I don't think it is...

    Force v Cheetahs, R6 2013

    +1 At the beginning of the season I feared he could be weak in defense, but he's doing just fine. Both eyes and statistics show he's a good tackler. Meanwhile...another defeat. It starts being frustrating, although this time with a better management of the game the Force could have brought a...

    Force v Cheetahs, R6 2013

    I was about to write it down on my first post: what the hell happened to CTM? :D And is still SNK a rugby player? Maybe we should avoid dealing with player with two surnames. o_O Well, I think Western Force should try as many options as possible in the backline, especially in the position where...

    Force v Cheetahs, R6 2013

    :D Agree, Cheetahs shouldn't be understimated. No matter how long it took to bring them to Perth, they're hard to beat. Anyway, these are the guys in blue to face the Cheetahs: Western Force 1. Pek Cowan (c),2. Nathan Charles,3. Salesi Ma’afu,4. Toby Lynn ,5. Hugh McMeniman,6. Angus...

    Waratahs 2014

    I wonder why they chose to sign Phipps. Surely a worthy player, but is he really a big improvement compared with McKibbin, the young Lucas or with a Burgess' comeback?

    Bulls V Force RD 3

    Here comes the Negative Man :D Well, guys, I don't actually like to have a negative point of view about the Force, and I know I should be satisfied because the Force were close to the Bulls until the last ten minutes, but I didn't see the improvements I was expecting. Hopefully there's room for...

    Bulls V Force RD 3

    I agree that something must be changed in the locks and centres and that Ebersohn must be given a chance (at least for being Force best kicker) but: - Ma'afu in only if he's really fit - Alcock should be in the starting XV - could Tupou be replaced by Christie at fullback? - Charles wasn't very...
