Georgina Robinson is reporting that Zac Holmes and Ian Prior have been signed to the force for next season. I can understand the appeal from both, but am I wrong in thinking the force have about 40000 halfbacks?

Yeah it's a weird one. Alby looks the goods, Sheehan is a club legend (is he moving on?), Snowden is coming on well, and they've got that local boy who's had injury trouble that they want to bring back into the fold.

For Holmes on the other hand it's a bit of a homecoming and it's the kind of signing I wish the Rebs would pull off for one of our boys.

Holmes is a solid 10 as well, I'd really like to see him playing for the Force.

I doubt Ian Prior would leave now. Can't explain why, call it gut feeling.

Well, apparently he's gone..........

It's a shame, because I feel that wherever he goes he'll be sitting on the bench......

WHY DO THE BRUMBIES KEEP NAMING FOTU AT 8 THEN PLAYING HIM AT 6!!!

He literally never plays 8, on attack or D. So why bother?

On Prior coming to the force Alby has a year left at the Force and wont be able to re-sign after that.

Sheehan will prob retire at the end of this year.

Snowden is a good development player so we would keep him and I doubt we will be seeing Turner any time soon return. I saw him running some drills with some little kids before the start of the Rebels game. He had a heavy limp and was looking a bit on the heavy side.

so next year we would be looking at Ably to Start Prior to to get 30 mins a week learning off someone like Alby and in the second half odf the year a hand over to him to talk over in 2015

I'm pretty sure he has packed at 8 at some point this year.... he definitely did last year....

You're right, he did last year.

Watch when Mowen is on the field, I think you'll struggle to find a scrum that Fotu packs at 8. I'm pretty sure he never does, but to avert the risk of eating my words I will just say he ALMOST never does.
