Ioane stood down for Force clash
Reds winger Digby Ioane has been stood down for the Force match this Saturday for ‘poor behaviour’ leaving the Reds coaching staff with a selection headache.
It is also suggested Reds CEO Jim Carmichael was alerted to a ‘gangster style’ photo doing the rounds – perhaps he reads Green and Gold?
What do you think of the penalty – too harsh or too soft?

Smith the answer to Brumbies crisis?
The Brumbies feel that George Smith will be able to cover the loss of David Pocock for their upcoming tour to South Africa.
The big question is will he be up to the pace to take on South African opposition after just one game back?

Ebersohn the man in charge
The Western Force head to the east to take on the Reds with coach Michael Foley giving Sias Ebersohn the keys to the backline.
Will he able to get on top of Quade Cooper in his own backyard or will the Quade have too many tricks up his sleeve?
