    Just confirmed on Channel 10 news in Perth.

    Rumours on abc.net.au but nothing on rugbywa.com.au

    So Confirmed, Plausible or Busted?

    I hope confirmed...........

    They have about 9 months to work it out I guess, it'd be a shame to see Shepherd bumped.

    With Whitaker retiring from Australian rugby, the crime of class players being left sitting on the bench is (should be) somewhat in the spotlight... but what can you do...

    I am incredibly suprised that he didn't sign with the Brumbies. But I just saw it for my own eyes on Sports tonight.

    Is signing for the Force such a bad thing Sage. or is it possibly that some Queenslanders couldnt stomach playing for the Tahs - its built in them from birth to hate the sky blue

    Well me for one hopes it's a runour. Nothong against the boy - he's a star. But fullback is well covered here, in fact with the addition of Gits, we've got the whole backline covered. What we need is to get a younger lineout jumper or 2 to replace Welborn and another tighthead.
