    Round 9: Force vs Crusaders: HBF Park, Perth: Saturday 20th April

    Has he been assigned to a WA club side? Would be great to see him play 1 game there first but can't see it happening. There should definitely be a few squad players running around in first grade this week, bud depends on whether Cron has called them back (Poolman, O'Donnell, Leahy, etc). I...

    Round 9: Force vs Crusaders: HBF Park, Perth: Saturday 20th April

    Should start him at 15 and see how it goes. Hopefully after the bye we get a few players back, Williams especially and a prop or two

    Rd 8: Rebels v Highlanders - Sat 13th

    Those numbers seem very high. Are you including Moana as a “NZ team”?

    Great news, surely all these signings for the Force will pay dividends eventually. Crucial that we get our first choice tight five on the field next year though. Robertson Paenga Amosa Hoopert Rodda Williams starting to look good as a tight 5.

    Wallabies 2024

    Open slather on overseas picks could blow up in our face badly. Anyone currently out of contract with Rebels would have to be seriously considering offers Also on subject of props, would assume Tom Robertson is Wallabies eligible this year (before any changes) as only on sabbatical and back...

    Western Force 2024

    Squad shaping up nicely next year with the new signings. The key will be whether we can get our first choice tight five on the field each week unlike this year. Will be interesting if they take a gamble on Rodda for an extension or not

    The negative reaction with Beale signing is overblown. It is only injury cover and they wouldn’t have paid much so don’t have a lot to lose. Lots of super rugby players have gone back to Shute shield and not stood out whereas he has looked good the last 2 games As for the culture well he...

    yeah makes the whole "ballot" system a bit of a farce. Any diehard rugby fan would have snapped up or tried to snap up tickets already rather than waiting on a possible ballot and no idea if they will get option to buy tickets. The silence is deafening.

    Wallabies 2024

    Yep Richie Arnold was up there in contention as Eddie’s worst call and that is saying something I can’t believe people are already suggesting Lynagh for the wallabies, he cannot defend and his kicks go about 10 metres, needs a lot more time

    Tom Horton any chance of being a bolter for wallaby squad this year? None of the other hookers have really nailed a spot and he has been pretty good. Does the core skills well

    I think wright and Kellaway have both been good and you could find a place for both of them in a 23. If you have a 5/3 split on the bench you could have Donaldson at 22 and Wright at 23 which gives you good coverage and impact.

    4 day weekend yet they still cram all super rugby games into 2 days, why? Both AFL and NRL have games on all 4 days Would have been nice to have a game to watch tonight or even Sunday or Monday

    There is as a lot from Stooke I agreed with as well as a lot I didn’t. He is correct in saying the whole board needs to be accountable but McClennan definitely needed to fall on his sword and he did state that signing Eddie was a captains pick. The whole discussion around women’s rugby and...

    That’s a shame, have spoken to Ollie a few times after games and seems like a great young guy and had a great future. Hard to keep these young guys forever if they don’t get a shot, especially the ones from over East.
