It'll be more than that Blue.

 

[Hawko]

I fear for the Force this week.

 

[Moono75]

Sandgropers will stand up!

 

[ChargerWA]

Alright Force fans, bite down on the stick and assume the position.

 

[maxdacat]

Stormers 8 knocked on leading to a penalty try....wtf!!

 

[Quick Hands]

The Stormers might be a good match up for a Foley coached side. We shall see.

 

[ChargerWA]

Wykes, get him off. Seen more internal fortitude from wet mops.

 

[ChargerWA]

Stormers have played their last bit of Rugby on tour at the 20 min mark. They've mentally boarded the plane but will likely hang onto the win with the Force kicking away every drop of possession

 

[ChargerWA]

DeAllende bitching us.

Next week, let's try
4. Coleman
5. Mafi
6. Coleman
10. Burton
12. Godwin
13. D Haylett Petty
14. Scott
15. Brache

Haylett Petty is the only one making meters in the outside channel, so move him in to get more action. Morahan has looked disinterested all season so far. We're pretty much a lock for the wooden spoon at this stage, so time to start trying things

Wykes can play left right out.

 

[ChargerWA]

Ross Haylett Petty on debut. Fuck yeah.

 

[cyclopath]

This game is like watching Forrest Gump shrimping.........before the hurricane.

 

[ChargerWA]

Coetzee cleverly clears the bench to get his 20mins of game out of the reserves to finish out the game.

 

[ChargerWA]

This game is like watching Forrest Gump shrimping...before the hurricane.

I'd kill for a gumboot and toilet seat right about now.

 

[qwerty51]

That's a new one Ross

Really poor knowledge there by the Farce. Have to know if you get held up over the line that's it. Either score 100% or don't go over the line!

Should mention it's a bullshit rule but that's the law.

 

[cyclopath]

Fuck, I want to want the Force to win, but they are hard to watch. Attack is dire. It just is. Foley has the pigs going OK, but the attack is awful.

 

[Quick Hands]

Force win the stats and lose the match - just. There's a pattern emerging

 

[ChargerWA]

Yeah, so disappointing. We must have lost 4 games now where we dominate territory and possession. Teams are kicking it to us because our attack is so dire. The only person looking like breaking the line is Haylett Petty.
