Coach calls fans to Fill the Hill
October 14, 2019
Tim Sampson has called on all Western Force fans to get behind the club ahead of the blockbuster home semi-final clash against Brisbane City.
Force was crowned Minor Premiers of the National Rugby Championship, following a strong 57-33 victory over Sydney in the final round of the regular season. Sampson stated the players excitement heading into the Force’s first home NRC semi-final and highlighted the motivating factor of playing at home at UWA Sports Park in front of the Sea of Blue.
“In finals footy, you need that little bit of lift to get you over the line at the back end of a game. Filling the Hill with a lot of blue jerseys and t-shirts at MacGillvray will be fantastic.” said Sampson.
The Force and Brisbane City will battle it out for a place in the NRC Grand Final at 12pm at UWA Sports Park this Saturday.

80 Minutes, 15 Positions, No Protection, Wanna Ruck?
Ruck Me, Maul Me, Make Me Scrum!
Education is Important, but Rugby is Importanter!
I think they made a mistake. I think Ferris is 8th man as they are saying in the article Stander is still out this week.
Explosive Number 8 Brynard Stander just missed out on selection this week after failing to recuperate from a knee injury sustained against Brisbane two weeks ago. However, Sampson is hopeful the hard-running South African will be ready for the final, should the Force win this weekend.

Should have been on the Sunday.
Quarter Finals are on unfortunately so I doubt they will fill the hill. I went there a few weeks back when the Wallabies were on and there were fuck all people there which was a shame.
QFs don’t kick off until 3.15pm. The Force game kicks off at noon. The Perth Rugby Village is running a bus between UWA and the Village for those who have tix to the Village. A Village ticket is $10, including the bus to and from the Force game.

Pretty good turn out for the game including Twiggy. Lovely day for it.
Good win for the Force, few nail biting moments where they could have lost it tho. Need to improve for next weeks finals
Laugh and the world laughs with you.......

I'm thinking that next week will be perfect timing for Big Eric to make a glorious return - Alison, are we able to get him out of secret storage?

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
Loads of people! Just looking for shade I think! They didn’t scan the whole hill then which is shame!
