That fixture is fantastic news.
Thank you Minderoo team for bringing quality rugby back to Perth in 2018
(RA certainly wasn't going to make anything happen).
It wouldn't have been easy to get this level of competition organised in such a short time.
Your efforts greatly appreciated by this Western Force supporter.
Fantastic lead up to NRC in 2018 and IPRC in 2019.
dead right they play for another team. just like they played for another team before the force. go and watch, support and enjoy. Be BIGGER not bitter.

Brumbies are likely to be the TBC match as it is preferred to play the Force after the Super Rugby comp. Makes sense as it is a better chance to field a stronger side then in June and keep the players match fit for the NRC.
An Asian side in June probably will end up being Suntory or Asia Pacific Dragons and in negotiation to play the Force after Super Rugby.
Love the changes to the home page
Fantastic Facebook comment from Jodi Hodgson regarding the Rebels game:
"I will be at the Rebels game. I won’t back down from the Rebels. Ever.
I’m there to support our team, our boys. Will it come with mixed emotions? Yes.
But I want them to feel our passion & support so they crave coming back here as soon as they complete their current contracts. I want to cheer louder & overwhelm them with a tidal wave of blue. I want the Force chant to drown out the commentary so the bastards in Rugby Australia squirm in discomfort. I want the crowd to bring our stolen players to tears. I want them to not be able to deny how much being adored by the Sea of Blue means to them. Let them not forget.
I want our new boys to play out of their skin for us. Because of our pain & our passion. I can’t do that if I don’t go to that game. For what it’s worth, I’ll be there.
The more I think of it the more I reckon it will be Western Force v Rebels only - as most of the WF2017 players will be in the Wallabies squad.
The Brumbies will probably play Suntory in June going to be bloody hot in Japan that time of year due to Summer. There is a partnership there already. Eddie Jones, Jake White, Gregan, George Smith and Giteau to name a few have all been involved with Suntory.
Chris Dutton has posted in his article that there are negotiations ongoing with Twiggy.
