    The ARU are still holding out hope that he'll become a Wallatah

    And according to Tim Horan on Rugby HQ last night, the Force will have no chance of getting into the top 10 on the Super Rugby ladder in the next few years if Ben does leave.

    That's good news on both counts, thanks Matt and Ben for staying true

    Thus effectively taking the spotlight of his beloved reds (who presumably will be in the top 10 next week)

    I had stopped watching Rugby HQ, but thought I'd give it another chance, but after comments like that and similar from the other half-wits on the show, I won't be going back to it...!

    During that conversation didn't one of them say the Force should be allowed about five marque internatiinals to make them competative? I agree with that.

    I didn't pick up that comment, but if they did it's certainly one of the more sensible things they would have said.

    Rugby HQ has ceased to be a serious rugby show.
    It now just caters for the twitter set/chattering class - as shown by the coverage given to the views of Georgina Robinson.

    Similarly Fox Sports has become the PR outlet for the Waratahs.
    The resigning of Waratahs Prop Paddy Ryan warrants a full video interview yet the contract extension to Wallaby/Force captain Matt Hodgson is given a 3-sentence coverage.

    It will be interesting IF this coverage will even change when the Force actually make the finals.

    I don't think we've really got an argument this year. If we win some games and they don't give us coverage, then we can complain.
