Someone mentioned it earlier in the week, the Force only turn up to play at the level they determine is good enough to beat the opposition. They have to eke out wins against teams they should smash and then lift against teams better than them. They looked at the Tahs lineup and thought thy...

It probably got drowned out in his constant sooking. The quality of Australian commentary is embarressing.

Kearnsy is sticking the boots into Dickinson. Are commentators immune from being fined for insulting the ref? Digby should get a Fox Sport internship and claim his tweets are Journalism.

Credit to the Tahs, at least they are putting the ball through the hands. Force have been seriously uninspiring with ball in hand.

That was the weirdest passage of play this year.

Western Force need to grow some Rugby smarts, we constantly conceede points to stupid shit, like that try to cross, the throw to the front of the line out and back to Saia Fainga'a to score a try in the first game this year, the cross field kick for a try when the force were all standing around...

Tip of the hat to their 10 year sponsor HSBC.

I was, I love 3 nations/Bled games. As long as the Rugby is good, I can see the value in it. It also gives more fans the chance to see live test rugby. Perth doesn't have a Wobs game this year due to the shortened format. I'm not up with NH Rugby like some blokes on here. How many games a...

I was more referring to the 3N and Bledisloe games, i'll take as many of those as we can get, but I also want to see us play the NH teams, as the international flavour is our point of difference with other codes, and even if the NH do send understrength teams, that point of difference is worth...

Did anyone else get three paragraphs in and just go....... Meh. Either play rugby or fuck off. My desire to see these two world class players develop in the game we love is quickly being overwhelmed by intense dislike of their management and their media bum boys who print anything to keep...

I'll take as many tests as I can get. I agree that playing more tests does hurt the "mystique" factor, but everytime a test team turns up to play each other you know it is going to be a cracking match (especially the SH teams). If it gets to the stage where they start turning up and treating it...

When I checked Superbru last night, the majority of the tipsters picked the Tahs. Tah's will be favourite at the TAB.

Wrong Carter, I'd be betting he is talking about the stamp collector.

For the good of Australian Rugby, the Force should lose this one, but I predict they will continue their habit of being a late season party pooper and win this one to ensure two aussie teams don't make the finals.

In the modern world, what does the contract stand for. Nothing. If a team wants to get rid of their coach, they just say "on your way, here's a nice payout". eg. Andy Friend If a coach want's to leave, the board see's no point in making a reluctant coach stay on. eg John Mitchell As far...

Agree with all of that. Vinnies mistake was a bummer, but on the flip side he showed a willingness to penalise the saders at the breakdown I have rarely seen before. If it was any other Ref the saders would have likely won by more.

As in the early games of the season, JOC (James O'Connor)'s accurate kicking is keeping the Force in games and masking their inability to consistently break the line. That's not a complaint, but something the Force need to be accutely aware of if we lose JOC (James O'Connor). Luckily we have Ripia as back up, he would be the...

Got caught last night :)

They were playing JOC (James O'Connor) at fullback for some of the set defence. But JOC (James O'Connor) was as willing as ever when they did meet. I don't recall the two meeting in a one on one (if you exclude SBW's late armless bump on Oconnor after he had kicked the ball). Having Pocock two paces behind him couldn't do...

And David Pocock is a freak, his speed to the breakdown is something to behold. He was barely able to walk when he did the lap at the end throwing out the balls into the crowd. He is indeed worthy of much man love.
