THE WESTERN Force have retained prop Gareth Hardy for next season and are expected to sign Wallaby halfback Josh Valentine within the next fortnight.
Hardy, 27, who was looking at European options, has used the option of extending his current contract for another season.
English clubs had been interested as Hardy has a British passport and would not have been included as an overseas player in a UK side.

BOKKE“Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White
Sweet. Onya, Boof!
Success is not final, failure is not fatal:
it is the courage to continue that counts.

One year is not long, but better than nothing. Stoked the Force have retained him, he's a great player in every aspect of the game.
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
