Also played for Perth Spirit in the NRC and I think last year he as was also part of the Reds Wider Training Group and / or Development squad.

Western Force played both the Rebels 45-0 and Brumbies 17-14, so I assume all teams played two games.

Great squad player to have. Not sure how he has travelled the past couple of years, but from his days at the Force he was a player who wore his heart on his sleeve and always gave 100%, Decent size with mobility and often gets you over the gain line and a dominant tackler.

Geoff Cridge off to France for two years, report; 'Waratahs second line Geoffrey Cridge, a former Baby Black, has signed with Aviron for two years."

George Poolman from the Western Force academy added to the squad

Love the way Fox Sports are getting all the "Exclusives", especially after they dumped our sport as they thought it was no longer a tier one sport in Australia!!! Clickbait????

Losing Wallabies does not free up that much space in the salary cap as usually their salaries have Wallaby Top Ups outside of the salary cap, so similar to the Force unless the new comers have Wallaby Top ups the amount available to intice incoming players is very limited.

Great interview. Seems like he is going to bring a lot of additional rugby IQ to the Force. The way he talks you can just sense his enthusiasim for the game, his players and all things rugby. Looking forward to having him on board, seems like the right fit for the Force.

I am glad to hear Steward being touted as being in the squad, and hope that is indicative that the squad will be the development pathway for young players with potential to be future Wallabies rather than a place to keep those closer to the end than the begining warmed up for possible inclusion...

Absolutely, after the match against the Force in Perth, he was engaging with the fans, chatting, taking selfies and if my memory serves me correct one of the last to leave the playing field. Left a great impression and added to the whole match day experience.

Interesting how the journalist in question changed the tone of the signing and his outlook after his first tweet (see below):

Ollie Callan and Jackson Pugh locked in for two more years. The Western Force has re-signed Western Australian duo Ollie Callan and Jackson Pugh on new two-year deals. Read More

Interesting to see all three Australian teams have gone with 6 /2 split bench for the quarter finals

Bo Abra and Angus Wagner signed up for two more years
