2018 Player Contracts

[Alison]

TIF, do you have a list of the players who’ve not been picked up anywhere? I know Pek, Tess & Koteka are jobless but hopefully not too many more of the squad are in that boat.

[Bakkies]

You could put up a 2017 Force list and start ticking off names.

Off the top of my head

James Verity-Amm
Koteka
Richie Arnold
Tessman
Pek Cowan
Chance Peni
Robbie Coleman
Peter Grant
Angus Cottrell
Scoble
Rangi
Louwrens
Ruru
Rona
Luke Burton
Marcel Brache
Brynard Stander
Ian Prior
Ben Matwijow
Lance
Havili
Badge

Lance is linked to the Rebels.

There are four Force players rumoured to be joining the Brumbies if the squad size is lifted. Badge is also making a comeback and looking for a team so I will include him on the un-contracted list

Surely it would have been cheaper to have move the half dozen or so Rebels left to Perth than moving 15 or so Force to Melbourne!
I also hope the lads all received a relocation allowance!

[Alison]

The IRB should be taking this seriously as international governing bodies don't take it kindly when Governments are in the process of weeding out corruption that is rife in a national governing body that is a custodian of their game.

Yeah, not sure the IRB can claim to be a paragon of virtue either though. I mean, the RA is represented on it by Clyne for a start!!

Judging by the way the RA does its adding up, they probably DO think they are saving money!!

Phillip, Meakes and Hardwick off to Rebels

Apparently the resurgent Rebels. Shouldn’t you have surged at some point to use that terminology?

The front page is as up to date as I know.

Phillip, Meakes and Hardwick off to Rebels

The sound of an explosion was reported last night, possibly emanating from the NSWRU office in Moore Park - apparently a few people had gotten the mistaken idea that in the carve up of the former Force playing list, Meakes would be the Tahs'.

[Alison]

But the Tahs have got poster boy (or should that be poser boy?!) Beale. Why would Meakes want to sit on the bench for him?

Two of their leaders Stirzaker and Colby Fainga'a have been relegated due to the recruitment of Genia and Hardwick.

Colby is a bloody good player. Hardwick and him will have an interesting battles for the starting position.

[zimeric]

So how many force players are at the rebels now?

[GIGS20]

So how many force players are at the rebels now?

Remember when the Force were still alive I posted that we would pick over the rebels and name a team that was essentially the force with hodge and koroibete? Essentially that

[sittingbison]

Rebels have resigned Shippers

Jeez what about Rona Peni and Verity Amm?

[Bakkies]

Possibly to the Brumbies.
