    I still think that, for all his talent, he is bad news.

    Yeah, that was my initial reaction when Marto said it - but then he qualified it by saying he's playing outside the best fly half in Super Rugby ie, Will Genia so why would you move from that.

    The Force management said they were holding out on signing a marquee 10 for Cooper. Which either means they are very, very stupid or have a very, very good chance of getting him.

    AGREE 100% why would he come here to the unknown with JM, leave Genia no brainer but I am not too sure how many brains Cooper has?

    Matt Giteau came to Perth on the back of being promised butt loads of cash and playing with a friend. No reason why Cooper wouldn't do that same. Hopefully if he did it would be a more positive experience for all involved. Everyone was raving on about how Quade Cooper should definitely stay and repay the loyalty that the Reds showed to him but thats bollocks really. If it wasn't in the Reds best interest they wouldn't've done it.

    The Force are far from being a bad team. We have had a bit of a dysfunctional backline and our backrow hasn't been as strong as it should be but thats mostly down to injury. If Shepherd and/or Andre Pretorius hadn't been injured (yeah I know they are two fairly big ifs) we would be in very different place on the table than we are now.

    yeah and it's not as if we have a dysfunctional forward pack. Maybe he sees the potential in the backline too

    Sooky was half the problem when he was at the Reds. As is now clear, the Reds' attitude has dramatically improved since he has left.

    The truth is that nothing is clear until after his court case. I would be stunned if he left the Reds.

    Good on the Reds for there support and raising awareness!

    I have got so fed up with the Rugby club I have hardly bothered watching this year. This is saying something but you can get about the same info from "The West"

    the situation is that no decision can be made until the ARU offer him a top up,& that wont happen until after the trial
    if he doesnt get a top up he'll probably go OS
    ifhe does he'll stay with the reds
