What are our thoughts on Mees Erasmus (bar the unfortunate name)???

 

[Forcefield]

Is TPN the polynesian version of Seth Rogen? http://www.foxsports.com.au/rugby/s...e/news-story/d5fe2d7ee5d4e275350fa40e9128597c

Shows promise but needs to learn to scrum.

Looked great in the 10s, looked off pace in the NRC at scrum time. Obviously this is a core role for a prop.

and I'd have preferred to keep them where they were, especially QLD

Great signing for the Force

Taf is one of the nicest blokes in Australian rugby.

And great club man who does good things off the field which is exactly the sort of player the force needs

Scrummaging needs to improve but otherwise looks a good prospect.

At last count RugbyWA has received between 2500 - 2600 expressions of interest for the Fan Ownership Initiative. And that is before it has really been advertised hard on TV and Radio. Rumour is the board is trying to get the Honey Badger to be a spokesman for this.

Will people be allowed to buy more than one share? If so that may already be enough.

I would think multiple shares would help cover off those who drop out. It is easy for people to register on the internet, but another thing for them to actually part with their hard earned cash.

This is true, but I'm quite sure I read "one per person".

I think you can gift them though, so one could easily get them for the whole family and they act as proxies.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Not a supporter of the Force per se, but a supporter of Australian Rugby. The Force (and WA Rugby or Rugby in WA) is a vital cog in the machine that is Australian Rugby.

I'm prepared to buy a share for whatever $ (figure I've seen looks reasonable) to keep the game alive in Australia.

You know it makes sense. Think big picture.

 

[GaffaCHinO]

You are able to buy multiple shares and as for the payment you will have the option to pay in full up front or in 4 quarterly transactions

 

[WorkingClassRugger]

That's actually a pretty good deal. If you elect for the quarterly payments apart from the initial quarter up front (I'm assuming) that's less than $21 a week. I spend more than that on my morning coffee each week.

I was thinking of getting one but I might go a couple with that deal.

Just submitted my EOI.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

^^I'm on to it as well.

I intend to own a footy club or part thereof. Come and join me and @WorkingClassRugger in the Owner's Bar.

Possibly, but my feeling is there must be at least say 100 people who are big enough supporters and wealthy enough that they would put in 10k+ each without breaking a sweat, then more who might be in for 5k and so on. You may only need 1000-1500 people to get to $5 million.

That said you'd rather have 5000 people paying $1000 each if possible.

Heath Tessman and Shambeckler Vui have signed, 2 years and 1 year respectively.

So that gives us 34 in the main squad confirmed.

 

[upthereds#!]

think the senior squad number is 38 now. The Reds have 38, then another squad of 5 EPS which is a couple U20 kids and NRC guys.
