Very enjoyable Western Force Fan Day at WA Rugby HQ.

Good opportunity to:

meet all of the player group - including the wider training group - after their normal training morning
...

Ian Prior mention the 7,500 number in the post-game Press conf.

AuStadiums is showing the attendance as 7,514.

Enjoyed the game but had to be bemused by the different approaches to sporting crowds shown by Qld and WA.
In Perth instead of being half way up the Eastern stand we were 5 rows from the top - due...

I don't believe the 7,500 official number for the home crowd!!
How can ticket master move from a sellout to 2,500 less???

Good to see Jonah Placid get a gig for 2021
(WF FaceBook page announcement).

Tom Decent is a serial offender. I have yet to read a worthwhile (or decent) article that came from his keyboard.

Looks like the new O'neill playing kit has arrived before the trial game against the Brumbies.
But I reckon they'll play in the old kit and save the new stuff for the first SRau game.

Kane Koteka...

Gallagher - Foxtel (FoxSports - Ch 506)

Have I got all of the normal positions correct for this young talent??

Dante Tatafu - Prop
Keenan Wentholt - Prop
Connor Seve - Lock
Faamanu Kalolo - BRow
Reece Anapu - SH
Finn O’Callaghan -...

I too liked the 1999 jersey with the Sthn Cross and sprig of wattle on the sleeve.
It was the jersey worn at the 2003 RWC in Sydney.
Close to gold in colour.
The worst jersey is the most recent...

I assume that it's only for the SR & TT games in 2021 as the Bond Uni announcement mentions "looking forward to his return in July 2021".

By my calculation the Argentinians should be out of quarantine and able to join the players on Tuesday (12th).
Welcome to the Perth heat lads.

Did you know that out of nowhere both Heathrow and Singapore airports were closed?

I suggest this may have disrupted travel plans such that the Argentinians could come directly to Perth while...

Unsure - but he's still training with the squad after the Christmas/New Year break.

Why frustrating? There was little chance of him breaking into the regular playing squad in 2012.
In 2012, the 20yo Jake Ball was up against 22yo Phoenix Battye (2012-14), 28yo Toby Lynn(2012-13),...

I don't expect any change until there is a new governance and voting model.
Vested interests in NSW run the joint with NSW and Qld effectively making up a voting block.
I live in hope........but...

Have just listened to G&GR's Podcast 327 entitled The Last Dance.

This had the Matt & Hugh (Matt Rowley and Hugh Cavill - co-founders of G&GR) and Rugby Reg talking.
They announced:
1. This was...

Fantastic post by Kevin77 on Green & Gold Rugby re the WF. #365

I don't think that it's a case of selling out.
The caps have not been delivered as yet.
If it's the same as last year the caps, for which you pay the extra $30, will be coming out with the Member's...

Agree - but looking forward to what John McKee brings to the mix as well as the 2nd year of input, into a fitter team, from Nick Hensley.

Couldn't disagree with this assessment more.

Ian Prior is not a typical Aussie Scrum Half - thank goodness.

But the reality is:

+ He was one of the first to step up when the team was axed in...

I have no opinion about those who are not getting a contract extension as I know very little about their commitment on the training track, adherence to dietary guidelines, ability to focus on...

I'm looking forward to see what Kahui can do with a full pre-season with the squad.

He was pulled out of vacation on the Gold Coast with his family where he'd had a couple of months off....

But then again - what would I know?

Good draw Wallabies.

Hard to understand how Gardner missed the foot on the side line as he couldn't be in a better position.
