Thing is we need a player who can win games. That was JOC (James O'Connor). We now dont have him. There is no-one in the Force who is an established match winner. We need someone of tha calibre to mentor the youngens. Id also like to see an established TH picked up, who can scrummage - that player is not Ma'afu.

True, and we have Kyle Godwin who must be 18 by now, another year and he will be ready to make his super rugby debut... But we need an experienced player I think, who knows how to win.

Well that frees up some cash. Lets get in a high quality flyhalf from Europe maybe? I am thinking an Argie who could come down and pave the way for the Argie entrance into the 3N. Is Felipe Contemponi still on contract?

Sharpe is rated by his peers - as in other locks from his opposition like Matfield - as one of the best ball carriers the Wallabies have. And he was possibly the only forward (other than Pocock) last year that was willing to carry the ball into contact regularly, and make metres.

Oh FFS. Im sick of this, just sign somewhere JOC (James O'Connor). And the worst thing is we are going to go through it all again next year.

You do make a good point. Ant Fingers and Tom Carter arent that different in their playing styles. Neither are real attacking threats. Both are excellent defenders. Neither are super quick. One is being bandied around as a potential 12, the other as the laughing stock of Aus rugby (and one...

Im not sure Cowen is going, is it confirmed? They also have Cruze Ah-Nau, but he is at a similar level to PAE, so not ready yet. We need an established tighthead and an established winger to come into the team, with the intent to start them. Other than that, the other players that will come...

He needs to prove himself in the 3N first. With his injuries, he hasnt really made an impact on the international scene yet. He needs to do that before we start calling him world class - if we did it of super rugby form Mark Chisholm would have been world class for years.

Force: 3 Pocock 2 Cummins 1 Longbottom Reds: 3. Cooper 2. Horwill 1. Lance I found it quite tough to pick a third player for the Reds. Horwill and Cooper seemed to stand out. But the backs didnt look that exciting and the forwards were beaten.

I hope its C, but with a Tahs win. For the good of Australian rugby and all... Oh, and I also hope that the Tahs decide to play expansive running rugby. However, I would suggest I would need to spot a flock of pork first.

If Palu is gone then it will be McCalman starting with either Samo or Higgenbum on the bench. I would go with Samo as the bench cover. Mowen is solid but nothing special. McCalman, Higgenbum and Samo all do what he does but better. We have better players available to play 8.

I have been particularly impressed this season with what the Crusaders do. They have up to four players back and their counter-attacking is lethal. Of course, leaving that many guys back means that there are less players in the line. But I am sure we can accommodate both Cooper and Beale...

Courtney Lawes too.

Was thinking something similar too. He is wasted at 15 He should have been at 12 and Dellit 15.

It would seem that the Force are unable to close out games at the end. And it is a big problem. We have been saying that they are unlucky, but that cant be the reason, there have been so many games lost in the final moments. So far, they should have put away: Reds round 1 - lost 20 to...

Well done Reds

And there is the choke :x

I couldnt bare to see another force choke, we have had our fair share!

One could say he is a freak

Dickenson has made a few bad calls both ways, lets not get into a "blame the ref" posting barrage
