Serious congratulations to the Force and their loyal supporters here, and also to M Foley. Both team and coach deserved the win, one looked the better team, the other clearly (at least tonight) looked the better coach in almost all aspects of play.
I wonder when Reds fora here will start to consider the real, in fact now largely demonstrated, possibility that, back in the hubristic and triumphant haze of early 2012, the Reds Establishment made a disastrous error of judgement in choosing a new Head Coach of proven ordinariness who had essentially achieved little of distinction in his entire coaching career and when, at that very time, the world was the QRU's oyster in terms of being able to pick and choose from many of the world's best rugby coaches.
The mystery surrounding the entire coaching selection process in 2012 commenced then and there; in that wonderful halo moment. Not only has it now deepened, its reckless consequences are clear - we have a team in serious decline, both in terms of selections and core skills.
