As countless blogs and posts over seveteen years have outlined the Force are and always will be Australian Rugby's poorer cousin and will always have to fight harder with a lot less just to stay afloat and thats unlikely to ever change. However, that said there are a number of positives happening with the Force and with a lot of patience and a bit of luck will bear fruit in the years to come:
* Great coaching team
* Young squad, if kept to together will develop over time.
* A proper Academy and organisation structure now in place
* A proper rugby schools competition now implemented.
* Finally ex Eastern States/overseas players now staying on in Perth after retirement and getting involved in clubs / Force ensuring Rugby IQ is retained and built.
* A U16 and U19 program that can help retain players as they get older rather than lose them to other sports and / or the couch.
* A small band of hardcore rusted on supporters like myself that will stick with them through thick and thin and hope to attract a few more similar minds.
