    Perth NRC title gives Australian rugby the punch in the face it needs

    An excellent article from Brett McKay on 'The Roar' today.

    I don't want to copy it here as I think everyone should go there, read it, and comment!
    We, as the active Force supporters, need to remember that our voice needs to be heard on other forums and not just preach to the choir.

    Excellent read, I see @westernForce have already tweeted it, as well.

    I reckon we gave them a punch in the face..... And a swift kick in the nads!

    Piggies taking out the NRC has given us the perfect platform to go forward with our remonstrations.

    Nice pickup Chibi, now are you game enough to put some of your hard won on the Force to make the finals in 2017?

    Nice job! I backed a $121 dollar winner at Bunbury last week and didn't score that big. Used my daily Power Play to crank up from $71.

    As if that will have any traction with the likes of Papworth and his Hooray Henry mates in the Shute Shield competition!

    No, probably not. But wouldn't it be great if his was the face to cop that punch.

    Up to 108 comments, mostly supportive of the cause.

    Like the comment, " why not shut down the Waratahs? "

    Well, if they're ever going to make the finals, I wouldn't be surprised if it is next season.

    Most websites have the Force at 200.00 or 201.00 to win the grand final next year. Can't find anything about a finals finish at the moment though.

    Papworth had more broken jaws than anybody that ever played mungos. He must get toothache when it gets cold. Hes the original glass jaw joe. Who wants Rex to fight Papworth for charity to save the Force? Im up
