    I hope, if they go to the high court, that they take more than that one leaky clause.

    Reading the finding, I can see clearly why the Arbitration went the way it did and why the appeal was dismissed.

    And I'm no lawyer!

    I hope this was all some clever legal tactic designed to make a bigger case more successful because if it wasn't it seems like a massive waste of time and money.

    Perhaps John Edwards, Hansie or Fulv could calm my frazzled nerves.

    Wessels is up talking now.

    But hodgo was saying that the team would be seeking to keep the name "the western force"

    The sad fact in this whole debarcle, is the ARU have seen this as a win.

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Yeah, apparently while there were RWA people in tears at the offices in perth after the decision, the ARU contingent at the hearing was walking out smiling and happy with themselves.

    Parallel women's & 7's teams too. Imagine that for an afternoon if every round there was 3 games back to back to back per fixture

    Yes, I assume Western Whatever They're called will be made up of Pindan players and fringe Super Rugby players who aren't able to secure a contract, but don't want to go overseas.

    Six teams, so double round robin and a grand final?

    Hodgo was very adamant that they will be doing everything to get the name "western force" and keep the blue & yellow jersies because they don't want to forget the 12 years of history
