    THAT last part is good though. No more Drew at 15

    Injury count has Western Force counting cost of Hurricanes defeat.

    Pocock-concussion
    Staniforth-ankle & knee
    Cummins-leg
    JO'C-expected to be back
    Shep-likely to remain on the sideline

    http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,...002381,00.html


    Channel 7 news:
    -Cummins has a broken leg
    -Pelesasa has a torn tricep
    -Sharpie said the loss was heartbreaking
    -Reporter said Mitchell missed 2 crucial tackles and it could affect contract negotiations.
    -Brumbies payed an emotional tribute to Shawn Mackay and went on to win the incredibly emotional match.

    And don't come crawling back to us.

    We don't need your non tackling ability in our back line.

    Ring Gavin Henson get him over here. He's a pretty boy for the ladies and he can tackle and even run lines.

    When the tackle stats come out I will defend Drew more. However! Last week against the reds I thought he was pretty good, last night yes he was woeful but one bad game doesn't make him a bad player. I hope he stays.

    He's been falling off tackles all season. Then he gets one good game amongst many bad ones.

    I rang Henson but his phone was busy.

    He's also made some pretty important ones. Many bad ones? I don't think he's had many bad ones. Which ones this season?

    Good. Guess we'll have to keep Drew then

    The ones where he fell off tackles.

    Gavin's phone is still engaged.

    Ok he just answered.

    Gavin wants to know if he could compete with the other pretty boys on the team before he signs.
