80 Minutes, 15 Positions, No Protection, Wanna Ruck?
Ruck Me, Maul Me, Make Me Scrum!
Education is Important, but Rugby is Importanter!
Force team:
Marley Pearce, Tom Horton, Tiaan Tauakipulu, Jackson Pugh, Lopeti Faifua, Faamanu Kalolo, Carlo Tizzano, Jeremy Williams (cc), Henry Robertson, Max Burey (cc), Ronan Leahy, Bayley Kuenzle, Sam Spink, George Poolman, Harry Potter; Albert Alcock, Angus Wagner, Reginald Churchward, Reagan Leslie, Titi Nofogatotoa, Ian Prior, Reesjan Pasitoa, Rewita Biddle
Good to see consitency in selection and players getting game together.
Interesting bench selection Titi Nofogatotoa, ex Junior Wallaby U20 8th man in 2022 and I think he may have also captained a game or two for them.

The Force have made a months worth of errors in the first 27mins. Score Cheetahs 21 Force 3
Harry Potter scores 8- 21
The Force's lineout is a mess.
The scrum isn't much better.
Bddle scores for the Force and the Cheetahs are now down to 13 men. For 15 Che 26
Try to Horton For 22 - Che 29 Keunzle has been goal kicking.
Game over For 22 - Che 32. Our set piece was outclassed.
Was that really the same team as last week?
I don’t think I’ve seen such a bad line out since we started. Very disappointing after a very spirited tournament.
Good to see some new blood especially the use of some local club men.
Go the Force.
May the FORCE be with you!
You forgot to mention the scrum getting trampled into the expensive ground. But - and I don't like this cliche - taking the positive; I thought the D was good considering that and the error rate in possession.
The other positive was how good Spink,Burey & Potter still looked playing on the back foot.
Another was the talent in black shirts watching on who will be back the new year.
And after Mandurah last week being able to get frosty full strength tinnies @ $7 was pretty nice too. Should we move to Claremont Oval?![]()
I might consider it if the boxes are as cheap as the beer.
But seriously, the view from the stand was ok for a footy oval. It looked like the posts were 10-odd meters off center of the footy goals towards the stand. Maybe they forgot to tell Bayley.![]()
Dayteime was a big improvement on the lighting in Mandurah. Apart from losing it was a great way to spend a Saturday.

Cheetahs beat a Springbok laded Sharks team 32-29 yesterday 17/12/2023.
At a quick glance at least 12 starters played against us, over the series
