So, here we are at the start of the Western Force’s fifth season, with two full contract born and bred players (Longbottom & Tyrell) and an overseas born, Perth schooled player (Haylett-Petty) on the roster, the return of a prodigal son (Sheehan), a Level 1 developed contract (Turner) and a handy Academy list of “local produce” and some interstaters.
But where to from there?
There always seems to be an emphasis on youth, but can any TWFers report on potential diamonds in the rough running around for your respective Seniors side, that warrant a look?
Are there any young jets in your Colts that have gone under the radar with the Academy selections?
Any new recruits from further afield come to earn their stripes like a James Stannard?
What is the feeling in club land about the levels of depth and player development over the last four years and are there signs of hope for an increased output of local Super Rugby players in line with the original intent of a Perth based side?
Look forward to reading what our TWF WA Club stalwarts have to say.
