How much of the 6N did you watch? Their scrum was borderline diabolical in the late stages of the tournament. 4 tighthead losses to Ireland and 1 against Wales. They should have had more against Wales and at least 1-2 against Italy but the referee was continually interpreting Wilson walking...

Are you sure those 11k crowds have left the Force with enough extra cash to buy a referee for the night? That's about the only way you are replicating anything from the Lions match.

The problem with that is that England's scrum is pretty shit without Coles AND Corbisiero. Even if Coles is back on time they will have a weak loose head. Rowntree will be doing everything he can to get England 'appearing' to be the dominant scrum, just like this past 6N, usually by having the...

Are you forgetting Graham's career path already? I mean that's cute that you've been preparing for a few weeks. Try preparing for a few years and maybe you'd have a better shot this weekend.

@Tip Seriously, to say a game that has the three-man tackle (ball, upper body, legs) as a core defensive move has an identical, or even directly comparable, style of contact to Rugby Union just sort of baffles me.

Being a pedantic fuck but Genia had a clean break against the Sharks. Not so pedantic - Genia has a .68:1 Run-to-Kick ratio right now while Nic White has a .72:1 ratio. So, is Genia really kicking the ball that much? He has 18 more kicks than White but he's also run the ball 11 more times as...

Guess you need to tell your boys to sack up then because they got shoved around a fair bit by our mosquitos in round one.

So you were the reserve halfback, huh?

Not sure if 'form' is a word anyone has associated with the Force since Pocock left..

Nazis, apparently.

I think he meant 16 stone? :rolleyes:

Mate, at least we have memories to hold on to that span more than one fluke win against a New Zealand side. Glass houses, glass houses. The Force are the Oakland Raiders of Super Rugby.

A Force fan would be an expert in spotting a shit team, I guess.

So you mean like Wykes' entire career? It's alright. I wouldn't expect fans of a franchise that hasn't been able to think up a backs move for nearly a decade to be too keen on things like 'sample size' or 'historical trends'. "how to jump in a line out" "how to captain the Wallabies"...

Probably way, way too stressful for the animals to put them in a stadium. Even with those tiny crowds ;)

I don't know why but I can't be neutral or reasonable in any way when it comes to this game. Reds are going to smash your boys. End of story. Horwill and Simmons might at least teach your locks a thing or two. Tired of dropping games to these bottom-feeders for no reason.

IS IT FRIDAY YET

I believe I get what you're pointing at, but the numbers don't really support your notion entirely. http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/the-statistical-case-for-a-wallabies-attack-coach/

@Ash I woke up very early for this one and it nearly put me back to sleep! :confused:

That was a very redundant and odd 10 minutes of rugby
