Asking incredulously and only too aware unfortunately- but that side of things is for the other forums

How is there not a Perth Spirit home match as a curtain raiser to the Test match this weekend?

Crowd was pretty good on Sunday. The rugby community has gotten behind the Spirit in a big way this year. Seeing heaps of the junior coaches at the match with a bunch of their respective teams is a very good thing.

Hammer time!! Spirit to come at this with all barrels firing. What an absolute cracker of an NRC.

Righto, see where you coming from. Yup good point.

How so? They way I'm looking at it, this will expose more players to more rugby and spread the talent pool around. Almost the exact opposite of what Toulon is doing by buying talented players and watching them warm bus seats, not even being seated on the reserves bench.

That is a brilliant idea, not only for all developing teams, but also for Australian Rugby. This thinking may help to stem the potential tide of players heading overseas as a first option. The platforms that have been put in place at the Force and RugbyWA over the last three/four seasons need...

At least a wave of Western Australian players are starting to push up around all over the place. It's a disappointment we can't keep them all, but it is showing that the talent pathways are producing and with the Original Force players who have stayed and made Perth home, their big life step and...

Fantastic fellows keep the updates coming!

strong line up

Is this silly reffing or silly play?

Put your log in details up and I'll test from my side...

There was thinking a that this would be a beaut of game. Your commentary is suggesting that it is living up to it

Keep the commentary coming! Come on Spirit. Tighten ship and defend the wide channels. We got this

All updates very welcome

Should be a cracker of a game. Both teams with speed out wide, both teams looking to hold onto the ball and attack at pace, both teams with good sets of forwards. Think the defensive strengths of the Spirit should contain the Rays. The Rays not enjoying the straight, hard rumble forward from the...

Then you wanted to be at the Spirit game. Clubs were there cheering their players. The hits put in showed intensity. The weather threaten to pour and yet a good crowd. The players being met on the field after the game by a fairly large group of family, friends and supporters. If anything, that...

A number of points got left on the field. Both teams had opportunities to be in the mid 30s. The Rising scrum very strong. Spirit very impressive first game up. Strong all the way through, with depth.

To nullify your opponents threat. Under UFC rules a dominant round is a 10-8 score. You are better than your opposite number. Alcock dominated Hooper on Sunday. I like what Hooper brings to the field and think he is a very good player. Yes I'm Force bias, and rate the aspects that Hodgo and...

Dominated Hooper on Sunday, and dominated Pocock in the trial - he is also back from injury last year.
