    Pick your wooden spooner
    Force - 59%

    Reds - 10%

    Cats - 15%

    Sharks - 7%

    Chiefs - 5%

    Blues - 4%

    Total Votes: 1260

    Lets have a look at our own thoughts here as well, but don't forget to go to Rugby Heaven.
    At least the options here come from reverse ladder order following round two.

    Surely those people who have voted have not one idea of our club...

    We will not finish last...

    We have a 80% chance of winning, actually I am going to put $5 on them and I reckon everyone should do...to show the world we have faith in the club this week...

    Hopefully we get over 26,000 this week.

    Here here Egan (TWF is not recommending gambling folks but) I might just do the same thing when I get to town on Thursday. What odds are they offering?
    I would hope 4,000 on top of membership should be achievable for the second home game.
    Was really quite bemused with how small a crowd was at the Canes v Force match as they don't play many at that ground.

    Sorry Burgs I don't know the odds, I don't bet much at all...I just think that putting money for our team to win, shows more then a bloody poll does.

    This week is ours and the party shall be live and kicking at Subiaco during the game...tell people they are going to miss Force's first ever win.

    Just a bit worried about the novelty factor for the first game not getting any wins to draw them back again Larry. Optimistically we may get 35,000 but I htink there will be a fair drop off. The Waratahs match will see a bigger crowd as plenty of NSWelshmen here and would travel and likewise the Crusaders match will draw out the Kiwis more than the Chiefs.
    Let's hope the average Perth fan has more balls than that and proves us all wrong and we get an even bigger crowd this week.
    Promotion will be the key to really talk it up for the swinging sports goer.
    Even just the 22,000 members will be bigger than what they played in front of this weekend in NZ!

    Yeah.....well that worked! We're now out to 61% for the wooden spoon
    Oh well, just have to play up the underdog tag and bore it up any team that flukes a loss against us.....beware Chiefs!!!
