Cheetahs vs Force Rd 13

[Ruggo]

Bloody good win Force. They do a great job with a pretty good short passing game and that scrum of theirs is a weapon. I think because they are not a big side, they put that emphasis onto technique where they bigger sides can actually be quite lazy in this regard. A good lesson to the Wallabies given the French are coming.

Now the Reds are buggered I am finding myself on the Force band wagon.

@GregGrowden was that entertaining enough for you?

Don't encourage him. Don't even acknowledge him.

Up the guts an' into 'em!

Fixed.

But yet still the underdogs.

always the underdogs!

always the underdogs!

And, just very quietly, only in whispers, loving the fark out of it

Force need to pound the Stormers now because they've got a fairly hard run in but well fucking done! Three Aussie teams in the finals - with an Australian home final - looks on the cards if they keep this up and my Tahs don't fall on their arse.

Beating the Stormers would be awesome. That would leave us on 8 wins with 5 to play and three of those at home. Given the Highlanders' narrow escape against the Lions, every single point will count. I guess that's why they call it the pointy end of the season.

I'd be looking for at least three wins from the remaining games. That should be enough for finals.
I don't think we will beat the Crusaders in Chch. I would like to beat the Brumbies and Blues but they are tough games. I think we should beat the Stormers, Lions and Reds.

 

[Hoolly Doolly]

Stormers played a great first half. No easy beats by any stretch of the imagination.I think all of the remaining games will be tough.

Marcel was a beast today, Great signing for the force. Happy with win. Pollock tried to get the cheetahs back in it but we prevailed. Also thank you to the TMO, very technical with all his decisions

Definitely - he's gotten better every game. First time we've seen him really get any touches with the ball - and his defense has been great.

Look forward to seeing him in the Stars & Stripes

Ahhh, didnt realise he was a seppo. That explains the pronunciation of his name. He would be a good addition to the Eagles. he certainly hasnt looked out of place at super level.
