It's bullshit that he either starts at 10 or nothing, especially when he's lineball. And there's the first 'A' game curtain-raiser ever in Perth. Start him in that for 20 mins AND put him at 21 if he comes through that okay. Unique options Sat night. So now he'll front up at 10 against the Tahs the following week 'a little short of match practice', against BB or Kurtley.

Yeah I agree. He's got to get some game time somewhere just to blow the cobwebs out. I expect if he is back for the Tahs it will be a cameo performance, swithing JOC (James O'Connor) to 12 for a stint. Really dissapointed he didn't get up for this game against the Rebels. Id like to see how the boys do with Ripia, Pocock and Inman back in the team.

Force should win this one with ease. Just dont shite on Craig Joubert, he is the best at the moment.

His parents are Kiwis so I guess that he probably picked up a slight accent from them.

I've heard his parents talk and they don't really have strong accents. BTW isn't only one of them a kiwi and the other has Saffa ancestry? Remmeber hearing about how he was technically eligible for all 3 SANZAR teams (if playing in NZ etc)

Looking forward to this game. The Force backrow have been one of the better ones in the comp and I like what I've see in a couple of the Rebel loosies.

I think any Rebels game is a lottery selection as a tipster

Twice bitten, thrice shy. He was named to start in weeks 3 and 4 (I think), and didn't run on in the 22 either time. If you pick him I'd make sure your bench player is playing

And on cue (almost) comes the release Kevin O’Neill Ruled Out

RaboDirect Rebels forward Kevin O’Neill has been ruled out of tomorrow night’s game against the Western Force.

Anyone just watch the Rabbit interview, what's up with his accent? Sounds like a South Aucklander...

That'll explain where he got that nice step from....playing touch on the road under the street lights with the kids of the neighbouring Mongrel Mob and Killer Bee families till about 1am every summer night....

If the NZRU won't look at Hayman and Evans because they don't play in NZ, Robinson has bugger all chance...

Rutledge had an outstanding NPC but has been very average in the S15. I think the selectors will go with Andrew Hore or Hika Elliot. O0 O0 O0 O0 O0 O0
