    Haha!
    We can't even get a group of people together wearing the same shirt...

    If they put a bar in the middle of the field and only made everyone wait 5 to 10 minutes then they would have smashed the record...

    Sharpies Bar anyone?

    What a highly visible debacle. If anyone has a contact at the force please pass this on.

    - If you are going to organise a high vis day, please make sure your security wear something different. For those that don't know, if your wore a vest it had to be removed at the gates by security because you looked like them, duh!!!! How hard to organise bibs or something for security\officials.

    - If your going to do something like this, organise it better. 20 mins waiting to get moving, let alone on the field really doesn't work. You lost 200 people who didn't want to keep waiting.

    - Give Mathewson a big thankyou for taking the time to sign my shirt at the end of the record attempt, despite catching him unawares, and us not having a texta and me carrying an asleep two year old, he was gracious and patient while we got our act together.

    As far as the game was concerned we seem to be going back to our second half fade outs, two weeks in a row now.

    Maybe they didn't want to be apart of a pretty lame record

    Dazlo has it bang on!

    Lots of people forced to remove their hi vis before the game, stated it would start 10 mins after game finished, and we stood there for a good half an hour before getting through the gate.

    They only started opening the boxes of hi vis vests after the game, they should have been ready and organised.

    Some kids had a ball with them, security said they couldn't take it on the pitch, so they had to leave it. Their dad took it and didn't come on the pitch.

    A good idea for PR bungled by very poor organisation.

    I heard HB was requested not to play by Deans, and will miss the Lions game also.

    WESTERN Force winger Nick Cummins is expected to take part in the June 5 tour match against the British and Irish Lions despite battling another knee injury.

    Cummins, who missed seven games earlier this season due to inflammation in his knee, was a late withdrawal from last night's 19-18 win over the Highlanders at nib Stadium after copping a knock to the same knee a week earlier.

    Force coach Michael Foley said the issue wasn't serious, and was confident Cummins would be fine to take part in the Wallabies' three-Test showdown against the Lions, as well as the Force's match against the tourists.

    "If we had another two days to prepare for the Highlanders game, I think he would have played," Foley said.

    "He'll be fine."
