I am assuming it is still a long time until the squad is selected so performance in the business end of the super rugby season will be crucial, especially if some of these players step up under finals pressure, not to mention injuries as well. So it is great to speculate but I would like to see...

I just don’t see where the crowds will come from for the Perth bears. They might start off with good support but will end up similar to the force and Perth glory and getting crowds of 5k - 8k. I think they had the balance right with the double header plus another game and then an origin...

I think Swain should get a look in, has been massive the last few weeks and really need lineout firing against lions

Would have been a disgrace if the tahs lost that with the shocking decisions. The crap that some players get yellow cards for and then they put that hit on the same scale, that was a blatant red all day. A deliberate high hit should be treated more harshly than all the accidental ones Joey...

I think BPA is a better scrummager than Dolly so that should help, the reserves is more of the worry with no lock on the bench again, risky move. Force forward pack should be able to lay the platform up front but Highlander’s back line very dangerous. First round of club rugby kicking off...

I still like the idea of O’Gara with Schmidt as a consultant Definitely not keen on Lancaster

Siosifa Amone joined the tahs and worked his ar$e off in pre season and dropped 25 kilos. The fact Tupou can’t do the same suggests it is either a mental problem or maybe he is carrying worse injuries than everyone realises and they just manage to get him on the field week by week with not much...

Who cares about the scrum Robertson’s runaway try on the weekend should get him the gig Loving the depth in second row and back row this year and now we have 3 fly half’s who I think are test standard

Knock on my arse 2 shockers in a row from this ref and they reckon he is gonna get a lions test, surely not

Yep we know that, we lost 2 props for the season the week before the first game but people only talk about the reds injuries and the force are better because the rebels folded even though we just have 1 player on the bench

Not hard to know who the commentators want to win as usual

How are all the refs missing these late hits, that one on Dolly was blatant. Force defensive lineout awesome, Swain is picking the calls, wallabies should be looking at him

The force do traditionally seem to draw bigger crowds vs the kiwi teams due to the number of kiwis living here whereas the other Aussie teams draw bigger crowds for their derby rivalries. If the Force had a home again against the crusaders kicking off at 7pm on a Friday or Saturday night for...

Yep Grealy has been a massive pick up, Cron has really done well with recruitment and building the squad he wants. Tomkinson very good as well. Almost at full strength now, if we had Pietsch starting, Kuenzle on the bench and a better prop on the bench than Moli. I think Beale might be a...

I am liking the idea of Jorgo and Potter on the wings. I don't think Kellaway is doing enough to justify selection. McReight is an automatic selection but Tizzano is sure putting the pressure on. Nic Dolly could be a bolter for hooker as well with not many standouts.

It was a joke really, they should be trying to avoid the AFL and they fixture the game at exactly the same time as the Dockers, but worse was 2pm on a Sunday in the Perth heat in a stadium with very little shade. Anyway, those who were there like me really enjoyed it, best win in years.

I was gutted that this guy left the Force, I know he wasn't going to stay forever but I think we should have played him more and he has the potential to be a long-term Wallaby 13

Yep I think still building match fitness, being at the game could see he spent a lot of time out on the wing whilst potter and pietsch went in looking for work

Disappointing as a force fan to let that one slip, much like the old force that we hoped we had killed off after the last 2 weeks. Tate was awesome, best on field, wouldn’t mind seeing him and Donaldson together for wallabies. Pasitoa looks like a beast now and hopefully grows into the...

Yes exactly, against Moana we moved Princep to lock and I don't think that helped. We have Coxon back now which seems better but I always feel like Moli is not going to last the game, looks injured before he even runs on. Felix Kalapu playing for Waratahs B team, would have been nice if he...
