    Its nice to start having positive selection problems for a change,I truly hope Morahan is not picked he has had so many opportunities and has never excelled (over rated in Super rugby ok in NRC only for mine), the youngsters should be retained as he is leaving next year anyway.
    Matt Philip was terrific before injured but Lewis has also been great, tough one but Matt is a longer term prospect.
    Loosies well there are so many good choices at the moment, Im just glad Im not the one to decide
    Anyway good luck to those selected and hopefully they can maintain the rage

    What about Richie? He played out of his skin this weekend, and it would be a tragedy for him to miss out as well. I don't think Lewis, Richie and Matt can all be named, I just don't Think any of them is an option at 6.

    For me, tearfully, I think Lewis needs to wear the suit.

    Lewis Carmichael has been good for us but is here on loan. Coleman, Arnold, RHP, Philip and Matwijow all have age on their side just need the injury luck.

    Agreed, and I'd start Coleman, Arnold and rhp, with Philip on the bench. Unless Dave's analysis points to us needing more mobility than rock hard run it into the teeth of the defense. I think I've seen enough from the coach to avoid criticism prior to the match.

    I think i heard or read somewhere that Wessels said that the Force are not going to win super rugby, and that are not aiming for that, but they are aiming to play good rugby and start winning more matches.

    It is kind of refreshing to hear that, whilst still in the chase they are realistic about where they are as a team.

    I can' see us winning this one but hopefully we can continue the form and aggression we've shown. If we can stay competitive I'll be happy.

    Isn't it nice to have selection headaches leading into a game!

    I think on the back of last week's performance this is our biggest game of the year

    Would be awesome for our PR jugganaught to be the first Aussie team to take down a Kiwi team this season

    We seem to get a fairer showing with inexperienced refs, in fact I think those newer refs have had better games all round than the more experienced refs.

    Our players just need to keep believing in their collective abilities.
    It can and hopefully will be done
    Go the Force!

    We need to take the Ref out of the game.

    I think Rasta Rasivhenge has had a great season so far. carrying on from his 7s performances with the whistle.

    We had Kubo for the match in Auckland. I think the general consensus on here was that he reffed the game fairly well, although had a habit of looking in one direction a bit. He gave a yellow to Naisarani, but it was probably deserved, and he could have given him a second if he'd been looking to ping us. The yellow changed the game, allowing the Blues to score 12 (they won by 9), but lack of discipline will do that.
