Not happy with delisting Jono Jenkins, but I really dont know what else they could have done, with the plethora of good backrow options we have.

Hopefully he can pick up another contract with either the Rebels or Tahs.

I can understand the delisting of Hocking, he just wasnt coming good, and he is taking up the spot of another potential lineout option.

Saliva and Swanee are gone - Saliva to the Brumbies and since they signed Sheehan and JT I have heard that Swanee is no longer needed. Pity.

Surley with Sheehan only having one more year in him they would try and keep Swanee around?

Is Swanepoel leaving official though? You hear whispers, but surely the Force aren't silly enough to throw away a perfectly good 9 when there seems to be no standout academy option and it will be Sheehan's last season next year.

Thoughts on the departures...
Mark Bartholomeusz 2011 - Retired
To be replaced by Kyle Godwin.

To be replaced by Salesi Ma'afu.
Tim Fairbrother 2011 - UK
To be replaced by Tetera Faulkner.
Tom Hockings 2011 - dropped
To be replaced by Toby Lynn.
Mitch Inman 2011 - Rebels
To be replaced by Academy member (recommend Heremia te Aute- he's what about 20?) as Dellit, Sidey and Cummins can all play 13.
Jono Jenkins 2011 - dropped
To be replaced by Ted Postal.
James O'Connor 2011 - dropped
To be replaced by ???.
Siliva Siliva 2011
To be replaced by an Academy member, but no idea who.
David Smith 2011 - France
To be replaced by another winger/fullback marquee.

I don't think Ted will get an upgrade, a little birdy told me so.

Plenty of Force recruitment eyes on Under 20's this weekend.

Recruitment works two ways - the Force have to sell themselves.

Simple enough - line up Pocock, McCalman, Brownie, Hodgo, Wykes, Kieran, Charlie, Swannie and Cullet and say: "Look who makes Wallabies and future Wallabies" Then get Sharpie to hand out contracts!

Not too many blokes that could tackle in that group

Lets have a look at next years crop

that #10 from the Wallaby under 20's reminded me of myself 40 years ago,especially
his kicking & passing under pressure
no wonder I got nowhere fast

[Rex Messup]

Totally agree

What a gimp

Thankfully Beale/Cooper/JOC et al will be with the wallabies for a while.

Luke Jones who was with the Force and went to the Rebels was farking soft too

Is this retrospective the result of 40 years of counselling or just a sober flashback?.......

[brokendown gunfighter]

the latter,fortunately
