Force v Brumbies

[James]

This really pisses me off!!!!! Why the f#@$ bring iver 2 nobodys from over east wheb we have 2 development players right here in perth who have trained with the force all year. Blake is just as
bad a RG. Give Jake Ball and Ollie Hoskins a go ffs they will do as good a job as anyons from over east! This shit has got to stop why even bother with developing local kids if you wont give them a go. There are 3 games left ffs why not give Godwin a real go and see what hes got...but no we are playing a washed up 10 from sydney off the bench and who do the ponys have at 10...thats right a perth boy!

Do you know what the injury status of those guys are? Anyone in their right mind would play Jake Ball, but is he fit?

[DinkyDi]

both are fit and were on standby yesterday.... yet again the Force dont give a damn about local talent.... shame Force shame

[wholetruth]

Jake Ball is injured. Ollie Hoskins, while a good prospect, is not quite ready yet

I wasn't even reading this thread at the time.

So Jake is fit and on standby..and injured. Great.

I agree re: Godwin, he should be on bench not Harvey.

In a different post someone mentioned how the bye game was against some South Australian hastily put-together team whereas the Brumbies played some international team, right?

Well, I'd have thought the "opposed training" game would be the ideal build up to train in combinations, especially attacking bank line stuff.

That's what I'm banking on for this game.

Here's hoping!

Yeah I made that comment about The EWF's preparation against SA as opposed to the Brumbies against wales.......judging by that awful first half, I feel my comment is totally justified by the severe lack of intensity and how soft the defense was.......mustve thought they were still playing SA.
