Fruen at the Force? Fuck off, don't tease me like that! Sweet baby Jeebus can you imagine how good that midfield would be? I'm discounting it as a possibility for now, but it is a mouthwatering prospect is it not.

I'm not sure that I fully understand Twitter, but this looks like it is saying that Fruen has signed with the Tribe for next season, probably to try and fill a gap they were holding open for $BW.


Two pretty tidy additions!

The one whole in your argument is the assumption that cash is king for JOC (James O'Connor).

Now you may well be correct and he may take the big money and head overseas or to RL, but it may well be that playing for the Wallabies is all that matters to him (which he has stated in the past) and this is his chance to show how much it really does matter.

Well, yes it's an assumption.

I don't believe what JOC (James O'Connor) says. JOC (James O'Connor) has a great habit of saying the right thing, but doing the exact opposite. I believe the reports that say he is a cunning guy that knows exactly what to say publicly and often what he can get away with. Look at what he said publicly prior to the airport SNAFU, or what he said publicly post Hungry Jacks SNAFU. Sure sounded great, but unfortunately it didn't reflect reality.

Personally, I hope he signs with the Force and sticks with rugby, but I'd give it long odds at this stage.

Completely the wrong thread, but with Freuan signing with the Chiefs i think Nonu is stuffed from a NZ home next year.

Holy shit they will be good next year. Half their starting XV still have their best rugby ahead of them. Mils mightn't even get a starting spot.

Best of all, they're not pricks either. They're both good honest team men.

This is ridiculous. They'd have to have a better roster than even Toulon now (big call I know, but the Toulon boys are mostly past it).

and then SBW comes back in 2015 :eek:


I know. As I said on my edit of the above post, Toulon or Chiefs is a worth chat at this point.

I'd say Chiefs, because whilst Toulon have the best roster on paper they're mostly past it and plenty of Chiefs are in their prime of even before it.

I mean seriously, imagine choosing between Aki or Fruen.

Good to see the Honey Badger re-sign with the Force. Hopefully the back line clicks this year and he gets the opportunity to becomes more of a try scoring machine at S15 level. I still think we need another experienced back going into next season.

I think that's because the coaching stuff are experienced enough to know to blood him slowly.

Don't get me wrong. I really rate Aki.

I was just going a step further saying how much talent they have that even Aki couldn't make the starting XV all season.

Absolutely mate, couldn't agree with you more.

Fruen and him are pretty like and like though. Will be interesting to see where the staff goes with this.

Laqtest on Dillyn Lleyds. Will play 15 for WP u21 in the u21 CC final on saturday. Big loss for WP rugby and sure he'll do well in Australia. You have poached a biggie, bliksems.

I remember you talking about him a few years ago, PB. Nicknamed 'Quade". ;) Useful looking player.
