TWF Tai McIsaac Appreciation Week

Tai McIsaac: Gentleman, Legend, Front row spearhead of the Western Force.

A veteran of eight Tests, the evergreen hooker is the only player to represent the Force in all 49 matches since its inception. His 50th will be this weekend against the Bulls in Pretoria.

A pin-point lineout thrower and solid scrummager, McIsaac came of age when he moved to Perth from Queensland in 2006, breaking into the Wallabies squad after starting the campaign behind Brendan Cannon on the reserves bench.

Since then ‘Taipan’ has owned the blue No.2 jersey and has used the 2009 Super 14 season to stake his claim for a recall to the national team. (He represented Australia A in last year’s Pacific Nations Cup after raising his half century of Super caps)

Unfortunately for Western Force and Australia, Tai is heading to Japan next year to take up a coaching position.

Can we send him a card?

In Tai we Trust

I suspect there are a few cards (and just as many cads) on tour with him ;)

I'll send him a postcard :)

maybe a fax over in SA?

hes done very well , almost broke the run last week, but ended up playing a blinder....

Congrats on the 50th Tai!
He is such a genuine guy. Very grateful fo all the support from fans. He was most humble and in a bit of disbelief to see we travelled over to watch the Tahs match. He's a true gentleman of the sport & I wish him every success in Japan. Hopefully he comes back and coaches our boys one day.

Wishing you a blinder of a 50th game, Tai!

The type of player that team spirit and "esprite de corps" is built off.
We will remember him!


Hope you have a blinder Tai and enjoy however many matches you have left with us. :cheers:

Go the Taipan! Happy FIFTIETH! - show the Bulls how its done.

Just bring the usual for your fiftieth Tai.

An awesome performance, pulling more than your weight and more than a little bit of flair!

Hope the boys can give you a big victory as a present!

Have a great 50th!

An absoulte legend for the Force!
