Have to say that this match thread during the game was perhaps the worst I've seen on GAGR. No updated scores along the way, and very little commentary on the game as it played out. And 2 out of 3 posts were just Shiggins complaining about the ref/Brumbies. But I have to plead guilty myself - I was too wrapped up in the game and trying to find breaks to scan the thread that I didn't offer any comments/insight as well.
Thought the Brumbies altered their game plan enough to nullify the Force strengths at the breakdown. Hodgson very quiet and have to say I didn't see any impact from Ben McCalman all game. Wykes again strong for the Force, but Carter/Power had the better of the second rows. Matt To'omua and Henry Speight were stand outs.
