    Force 2023

    I still believe there is not enough depth of quality players in Australia to sustain 5 professional teams. Out of the 30 odd players in Australia that you could say are international standard we only have 3 or 4 of them, which is why we are having to recruit club quality players from NZ and...

    Blues vs Force, Sun Mar 26th. Eden Park.

    Showed good fight until the end, I think we are better than last year but still not putting it all together need to also put in perspective it was the blues B team as well

    Could be what 23-17 with a decent kicker

    Blues vs Force, Sun Mar 26th. Eden Park.

    Still think we keep taking Kalapu off too early. I don’t see what McCaulay actually offers other than being very very tall. At least Kalapu is a running threat

    Spinks is a beast love his hit ups but must be a toll on his body. Kalapu and Stewart excellent as well need prior and others to make a bit impact when they come on. can Stewart kick for goal?

    Blues vs Force, Sun Mar 26th. Eden Park.

    Have been happy with the selections Cron has been making. Less head scratching than Sampson last year. I.e he has ditched Prior, he has brought back Felix, Anstee back in and spinx back. Kuenzle hasn’t been great and neither was Mataele if you included Rodda, Koteka and Pasitoa it would be...

    Highlanders v Force - Round 4 - Sunday, 19 March

    Yeah I like Kalapu, he is great. I still think we have better players than last year. Hegarty, Stewart, Williams, Kalapu, Rahboni and Kibirige have all been very good pick ups. Not getting Rodda and Fainga'a on the field enough has really hurt us. And need a quality #13 (maybe spinks...

    Highlanders v Force - Round 4 - Sunday, 19 March

    The commentators won’t shut up about frizzel not playing but no mention of force losing Fainga'a and Robertson, 2 of our only wallabies

    Could be worse could be the tahs or rebels

    Highlanders v Force - Round 4 - Sunday, 19 March

    We play better with less than 15 anyway Will need to bring fines on and some other fresh legs

    Highlanders v Force - Round 4 - Sunday, 19 March

    Prior shouldn’t be getting back in this team, Simpson has been good and looking forward to fines off the bench

    Highlanders v Force - Round 4 - Sunday, 19 March

    If you went to a referee course and they showed you a clear example of a penalty try that would be it

    Wallabies 2023

    Can we make a backrow work with Valetini at 6 and Gleeson at 8? Would love to see it. Guess that would rule out Skelton starting as would definitely need 2 jumping locks

    Force v Moana, Round 3 Saturday March 11

    Awesome. Loving Felix kalapu as well, what a great signing, such a nice guy to talk to after the games. Just not sure why coach is benching him so early

    Force 2023

    Hopefully you are right but he is already 23, Harry Wilson is the same age and Valetini only 1 year older so he should be ready by now. Getting decent minutes off the bench now anyway so all good

    Force v Moana, Round 3 Saturday March 11

    I wouldn’t be surprised if Mataele gets benched soon, Pulu and Kibirige have both been better this year Also picking Wells as captain may have been premature with the new number 8 looking the goods and Anstee going well. Not convinced with Kuenzle at 13 but happy to give him more time and...

    Force v Moana, Round 3 Saturday March 11

    Not sure why they don't give the English halfback a crack. Prior and Fines have both been poor Harsh on Pugh not getting the starting 8 gig
