Good discipline and good kicking. Rebels play hard at the breakdown. Multi phase play is unlikely to work for us.

He's going pretty well. He made a couple of odd decisions in last night's game. Probably higher risk plays than you'd expect from him. I think a big part of that comes down to gelling with his...

It's interesting (and also great) to have so many locks in our academy. Luke Callan, Connor Seve and Jackson Pugh. It's an area Australia rugby will be short on going forward so great to have some...

You couldn't really say it wasn't tight with a scoreline like that, but I don't think the scoreline reflected the difference between the two teams. The Rebels never particularly threatening on...

I agree. The Force generally matched the Brumbies in scrum and line-out. Our maul defence was spot on. It was our discipline and lack of penetration that held us back. A couple fewer penalties...

Wholeheartedly agree.

Our costs would be mitigated because our players are already in Super Rugby. If we could get fringe players and the academy more game time, we would be doing great with...

Tighthead props are a valuable commodity. I don't imagine we would be able to offer him the same kind of money he'd get in France. He might have other reasons to stay, but I wouldn't bank on it. That...

Just looking over the squad and the academy. Looks like the priority recruiting areas for 2022 will be tighthead props, locks, fly-half and centres. I suspect a few locks from overseas will be...

They are coming across as a bit petulant, aren't they?

Anstee? Yes. He was in the first team. Personally, I think he's better suited to 6.

Curtin Air Base was a detention centre until about 2014. It would be in line with Christmas Island. Given the distance from town, it might also be easier to compartmentalise.

Last I heard it was...

I can't see the Christmas Island community going along with that.

I don't know if Curtin air base near Derby is being used at the moment. If not, that would be arguably better.

People always have something to complain about. Nevermind we are in a country that is the envy of most of the world re: COVID safety. Nevermind that we are in a state that largely lives like we did...

Ben Grant reportedly signed with the Reds. No longer on Force website.

Maybe if he goes well he'll be offered a longer comtract.

I don't think we have the squad to run it from anywhere. We'll have a strong set piece and experience at 9, 10, 12, 13 and 15. Good kicking I hope too. I am hoping Kearney will help us play the...

Toby Lynn was average. Phoenix Battye was average. Sam Wykes also fairly average. Not having a crack at them as people mind. None of them had the grunt Jake Ball displayed.

It is frustrating...

Echo echo echo echo echo.

Was part of the wider squad around 2012ish. Overlooked by Richard Graham. Became a Welsh international shortly after. Frustrating.

The Department of Incomplete Statistics says 5 out of 8

Lezana is good value. Perfect for a 6 or 8.

Pretty sure Iglesias scored a try against the Wallabies in 2018 with some dazzling feet.

Edit: He did. In the Salta capitulation. If he can do that at test level...

I suspect the club is looking at McGregor as a 10, where he originally played at age grade. We have options at 15, fewer at 10.

No. He will always be eligible for the Boks on the basis of his birth. If he was capped for Australia, it would be another matter.

That said, Stander is not the kind of player the Boks would be...
