western province v eastern western province.

Kinda makes sense as the stormers seem to be as one dimensional as the force, except they bash harder.

stormers to win the derby by 20.

Yeah Force by 50 sounds right. Gaffachino is guest referee. It's part of the new Force game day experience....just kidding Gaffa :)

We are on garbage time for the rest of the season. Experiment with some selections and find out who can play in preparation for next year. Be proactive. We seem to be stuck in a selection rut because the team keeps almost winning so they are afraid to make any changes.

Stormers will have one foot on the plane. It was a long and hard tour, in desperate need for a braai snoek. Force to get their first SA scalp easily.

Notshe ipo Rhodes.

Probably a bit of extra niggle between the two sides as well. Stormers stealing the Force's players and whatnot.

Last time we played the Stormers it belted down rain all night and we sat out in it in our plastic condoms. We were directly in line with Habana's intercept try in about the 20th minute. He knocked it on as he placed the ball, but it wouldn't have made a difference. They were too good for us then and not much has changed in 2 years.

Stormers by a try and two penalties.

I remember it well. I was with a mate from Cape Town and it was my son's first ever rugby game. The weather was absolute pants and we got pasted. A truly shit night.

I guarantee Habana won't score a try against us this time. See things are looking up already!

Leyds of course.

The little cub found wandering aimlessly in the Great Karoo by a Honey badger in his innocent naivety, saved and given all hope and purpose by suckling on the Western Force's Rugby teat. Then cruelly ripped from the Force's bosom for a much harsher and sterner wet nurse the Stormers after his first steps as a Rugby man.

Don't pretend you don't know. Develop your own players gee whiz. Don't see the Force doing that sort of stuff now do you.

Great insight from a troller. Leyds is a born and bred WP Stormers boy. Luckily one of your coaches know him well.

My apologies. Obviously not enough sarcasm and irony dripping from my previous post. Continue on as normal then.

Per Force Member email:

Force flanker, Chris Alcock, returns to the starting line- up for the Western Force’s clash against the Stormers at the ‘Force Field’ this Saturday night. The 26-year-old will run out for his 50th Asteron Life Super Rugby match, having played 25 for the NSW Waratahs, and 24 for the Force since joining the club ahead of the 2013 season. Alcock replaces Kane Koteka, who is sidelined after suffering a concussion in last weekend’s match against the Cheetahs, while the remainder of the starting XV is the same.

On the bench tall forward, local Cottesloe player and former Australian Under 20 representative, Ross Haylett-Petty is set to make his Asteron Life Super Rugby debut.
