Force v Highlanders 2011R16

[Victorian Reds Fan]

Stannard good again, apart from the yellow card. New Highlanders jersey not that bad. Smith is a quality player.

 

[Riptide]

Smith is a fine player indeed, but that it look like he grounded that ball for a try.

 

[DPK]

What a cracker this has turned into!

 

[Godfrey]

What a try David Smith!!

 

[tigerland12]

David Smith what a try! Force finishing strong (never thought I'd say that)

 

[Riptide]

Smith is a fine player indeed, but that it look like he grounded that ball for a try.

But Ben Smith was poor in defending a great individual try from David Smith. You cant miss those tackles at this level.

 

[Godfrey]

Force win 21-14 - great work Force! The Waratahs will love you.

 

[tigerland12]

Great second half performance. The Force 4 backrowers were brilliant as was Stannard, Ripia must be a nervous man

 

[Riptide]

Quite a good game and a great result for the Force in coming from behind. Very impressive from the Force, they are playing for each other and their coaching staff right until the end.

Sharpe with a nice little dig at the "schoolboys" comment.

Awesome win by the Force! Wow, Stannard is impressive. Smith dynamic and the Force pack very good.

The last 15-20 minutes from the Force was as good as I've seen in recent times. Terrific effort to take that game. Stannard is bloody handy, David Smith is dynamite in a bit of space! Force bench was potent.

Not bad for these schoolboys. Good result. Glad Sharpie finally gets a win, they have missed out in close ones too many times this this year. Maybe gives the Tahs a little bit as well.

Bad luck for the boys in green.

Indeed, some material for Jamie Joseph to pop in his pipe for a little smoke!!

 

[The_Brown_Hornet]

Can I just point out that I called that one?

 

[DPK]

That was awesome, glad I tuned in.

Think that killed the green jersey? It was already unpopular, now it'll be attached to this loss.

Stannard maybe the best specialty 10 behind Cooper in Australia?

 

[Maroon Army]

Congratulations to the Western Australian schoolboys XV.

 

[cyclopath]

Stannard maybe the best specialty 10 behind Cooper in Australia?

Certainly on form in recent weeks, no doubt.

Certainly on form in recent weeks, no doubt.

I am loving his willingness to attack the advantage line and then look to offload. To often, apart from Cooper, our 10s fail to do this of late.
