I think you missed Tuqiri on that list...oh wait...nevermind.

The very presence of Lote causes other team mates to score. He is the catalyst. The correct total should be:

Lote (NSW) = 171 points.

well done force!!!

[zimeric]

its always irked me that the force only have 5 reps in the 30 man squad but finished well ahead of NSW & QLD in the Super14. Guys like Henners and Tai deserved to be considered after a great season.

Let's see now, Tah's ; 2.22 points per man
Reds ; 4.75 ppm
Brumbies ; 5.1 ppm
Force ; 12.4 ppm

Imagine how many points the Wallabies would have scored with more Force players.

Ugh Pains me to agree with you Chook but I too have noticed a number of players who refuse to pass when they see him outside them, choosing instead to score a more difficult try themselves.

I suggest we don't name him, and play him as a waterboy, running up and down the sidelines following the play, in uniform. This will help to stop players from throwing errant passes over the sideline, and continue his valuable contribution to the team, whilst enabling us to play 15 RUGBY players.

[blueandblack]

since he is on the outside, maybe he can be considered a backup sideline ref. although that'd offend ecky probably.

forget i said anything

With our RWC at an end the front page has been updated for the last time.

Well done to the Force boys for such an outstanding result across the 4 teams.
