    Curtis Rona one of Planet Rugby's rugby ten young players to watch in Super rugby

    Curtis Rona (Force): Scored 41 tries in a total of 57 matches for the North Queensland Cowboys and Canterbury Bulldogs in the NRL, which shows he has a decent pedigree to make an impact in Super Rugby.

    The Force desperately need game changers and if he can feed off Dane Haylett-Petty in the back-three then expect the team from Perth to vastly improve on their competition low 25 tries from last season.

    ...and let's hope he becomes our first Mungo Wallaby.

    Ryan Cross

    Cross made his debut Super Rugby with the Western Force on 2 February 2007, against the Highlanders. He went on to play every match that season and scored three tries.

    After an outstanding 2008 Super 14 season, in which he won The West Australian/Rosendorff Emirates Western Force Player of the Year Award,[3] Cross was called up for national duty by new Wallabies coach Robbie Deans.

    Cross never really looked like a rugby player. He got close and was recruited based on potential but never made the switch from mungo ball to rugby.

    Rona I think has more potential than Cross. Lets keep everything "crossed" that he slices up for the Force.

    Ah yeah nah. Cross was not a WA boy. He was also an Aus Schools Rugby rep before going to the Chooks. The Mayor was the first Wallaby. But made it via the Tahs. DHP is our first home grown and developed Wallaby.

    OK I'll be more specific next time. Quite clearly, I knew what I meant so I spelled it out for you above. Now; quit while you're behind.

    What I liked watching the Curtis Rona video of his NRL tries was that the first thing he did after scoring his tries was to thank his team mates....appeared to be very little selfish ego on display.
