TWF Player Awards, Force v Bulls - Week 7

[Darren]

You know what to do!

With my lack of knowledge of forward play I find it very hard to pick who played well for the forwards. I usually try to pick one or two each week. How do you determine if a front rower plays a good game or not. How do you distinguish between the loose and tight head props? So I will apologise now to the forwards for their lack of points from me.

Haven't seen this weeks so no specifics from me Mambo but a prop is a bit like a openside, they are having a blinder if you don't see them all game except for the set pieces!
They should be buried deep below every ruck and maul taking the biff to save the pretty boys out back from copping it
If they are taking glory runs or waiting at the back of a ruck or maul then they will get dragged as Fitter did against the Tahs. Same goes for giving away penalties or taking drop goals! Should leave that to Welborn or Dunning respectively
They are known as the pigs because they should be wallowing in "mud" all day.

[Mambo No. 5]

The part that I find difficult is picking out whose arse it whose!!

[Burgs]

That's a relief mate
Maybe they need to put big numbers on the forwards shorts so they can continue the head down bum up without worrying about losing TWF player votes

Hey fellas, I think Hennas may have got the rough end of the pineapple, I finally got to see this match (thanks Spanky) and this is by far the best he has played this season.
He ran it up, tackled the big forwards, did a couple of handy box kicks and generally gave good service from the base. What more do you want? Again O'Young came on once the big opposition forwards were tonguing it and to be perfectly honest, gave away as many turnovers as Henjak did in a much shorter time! The "Henjak intercept" actually went through Doherty's hands to their Halfback, the rucking penalty was borderline at best as it was our ball and he was rucking directly in line with the ball, I just think we are all getting on the bandwagon here a bit. I'm certainly more disappointed in the reaction to his replacement by the Subiaco crowd now that I have seen how he played and I am quite happy to put my hand up and say I voted for him this week and it is the first time I have all season.
This is a player that will help to win games for us in the future and I reckon we are not being fair to him or his efforts.
If you want to start singling out players I would suggest a closer inspection first of the penalties given away by the Tighthead and some of the shoddy restart kicks going into touch.
We lost this game because of simple mistakes and ill discipline, same as all season, not from Henjaks match.
