    couldnt give a rats jono, they are welcome to them I'd have our current players any day. Its hilarious though that Western Force discards are their better players.

    It's not like the discards in question weren't getting game time or weren't offered new contracts

    Sidey's existing contract was even paid out as Foley said he didn't want him. He totally fell on his feet by getting another gig with the Rebels!

    Whilst well aware of the Sidey situation, I was hinting more so at Inman and JO'C who were offered contracts

    Can't be bothered dwelling in the past! Bring on Friday night already and let’s see if the proof is really in the pudding!

    Sidey is pedestrain. I hope he is playing. It should be easy to close their backline down.

    JOC won't play and if he does, I will buy a box trailer of beers for any forward that rips his stitches out and opens up that pretty little face. I want significant wound dehiscence ie had 18 sutures, restitched with 78.............and tram tracks all over his back and legs.

    It is likely he will be out although Pocock has jumped ship.

    Lets hope madness mcMinimum wants a piece of him.

    yours in bitterness
    Rex

    Rex does have a point though. You have to exploit weaknesses in the opposition, if Judas has 18 stitches in his jaw I know what I would be targeting to put him off his game. Some tough nuts like Steve Waugh or Allan Border would laugh at you, but somehow methinks Judas is not cut from the same cloth. If he is, good on him.

    The Rebels have named JOC at full back and Beale at 10 for Friday's match.

    There's still a few days training for Rebels to get through - so he might get a migraine from the stitches before Friday you never know.
    However I hope he plays because the Force can defo rely on JOC and Kurtley's inevitable chip kicks and grubbers. So all the Force have to do is wait for Kurtley to start his sideways run to snaffle him up with a couple of guys hanging in the back waiting for the grubbers. easypeasy!
    And can guarantee Higgers will try to start a fight and be his usual bogan act trying to disrupt, need a BIG BOY or 2 to take him out of action early I reckon. Any thoughts on strategy for the game guys?

    Run the backrow out wide in defense Charge at Higginbotham, who will be seagulling and JOC who will shit himself at the first sign of adversity.

    In attack, lateral movement seems to do Kurtley in and Inman is a great crashballer, but similarly short on mobility.

    Take the pack on in the ruck early, when the old boys are tired exploit the gaps two off. Honey Badger to run stop marks up and down whichever poor bastard draws the short straw and gets Vuna's wing.
