Force v Rebels Rd 5

[Hugh Jarse]

Siren goes.

Rebels Win 21 - 17.

Force impressive in the second half and could even have won the game but for handling errors (maybe due to rain).

7 from 9. Oh dear..

Lucky
Still finding new ways to nearly fuck it up

Have the Force scored a try from the outside the opposition's 22 this year yet?

7 from 9. Oh dear..

Makes last year's wholesale change stuff up even more monumental.

Wasted opportunity. I'll consider my response before being labeled a troll.

Easy fix.....I have the answers Force fans.....of course the coaches won't listen to me :--)

 

[Moono75]

To quote a movie classic....."God damn it mavericks disengaging"

 

[ChargerWA]

Why the fuck if you planned to kick the ball away all nIght would yo not pick Eberhson to start at 10.

But besides that, About right for the talent we have available. I tipped the Rebs by 5.

Burton was fantastic and Morahan might be fighting it out with Brache for a wing spot.

The Force need to move Rasolea out of 12. He just makes that backline so one dimensional. It's almost a guarantee that he'll take the ball into contact. There'd be better ball playing if Steve Mafi was playing 12.

Godwin needs to move in there and I'd even think about moving Brache to 13.

Steve Mafi had another really strong game.

I was about to comment on that, not only does he just truck it up one off into the set defensive line every time, he does it from a standing start does a little step that fools no one and then goes absolutely nowhere.

 

[Forcefield]

Sometimes a fisherman goes home empty-handed despite the bait.

That must be the internet imitating life.

You're a week late...............

 

[Slim 293]

I don't get it.......... Foley has the same roster of backs from last year but has chosen to rearrange everything?

 

[Dumbledore]

I'll take that

 

[Dumbledore]

Needs to learn how to moderate his passes in close.

He was miles better than Burgess. Liike, miles.

Ok. Yes Rasoela out. Brache to 13. Mitch starts on wing with Badger. 10 and 15 not inspring. Wasted year coming up. Sack the backs coach he is clueless.

Spot on. I've said for a few weeks that our midfield is kak and tonight was another example. Godwin must move to 12 and maybe Junior to the wing.

Mafi was fantastic tonight and I can now see why we picked him from Leicester.

 

[Dumbledore]

Mafi has had an immense start to the season. Absolute beast.

 

[Shiggins]

How the rebels didn't get a yellow I don't know. Mafi is the best signing the force has made in an age. If the whistle went our way in this game We would of won. It was one of those games. What happened to a home ground advantage? No 50 50 calls going our way. Unlucky. However our defence was average

 

[caymantim]

I didn't see the ref in that result at all... except for one scrum penalty for binding... it is the lack of imagination in attack and one off runners. Very easy to pick. Mafi was immense. The rest though... not so great. Like that little kiwi winger though, he shows some spark. Rasolea must have destroyed 100 overlaps? I dont get the swap with Godwin.
