Western Force coach Michael Foley has rewarded the players that put Melbourne Rebels to the sword by naming the same squad for Saturday's clash with the Highlanders in Dunedin.

He has also added tough back-rower Hugh McMeniman, who missed the 32-7 victory with a neck injury.

However, after Saturday's performance by the forwards, he is no guarantee to be in the match squad.

Hooyeah!!!

Meanwhile, the 32-7 win over Melbourne Rebels looks like being a financial bonus for the club with tickets to their next home game against the Chiefs on Saturday March 22 selling fast.

Does anybody seriously think that has anything to do with the win on Saturday? It's really only an opportunity for kiwi bogans to search their houses for any item of clothing that is yellow or black and roll up pissed to our stadium and tell us that our team is shut whether they win or lose #battendownthehatches

I hope we flog those fuckers at home....

Half the crowd will have All blacks gear or NZ Warriors mungo gear on.

Doesn't matter though because it's putting some dollars into our coffers.

I'm still not over that disgusting game of a bogan filled stadium 2 years ago with the Chiefs and fending off drunken louts trying to brawl all over the seats, falling over people and throwing up in the aisles! God no! And those bloody cowbells! Please god hope security keep it under control this time round.

The seats at the Northern End of Force Field will hopefully stop them lining the fence shouting out for "wheres Sunny Bull"?

Bring it! I can't wait. Adds to the occasion.

I wish they would make a big deal about how it only happens against Kiwi opposition on the telly.

Not when someone's throwing punches when you're trying to watch the game, or chucking their food at the Force subs warming up on the sidelines!

[GAFFA]

or lighting joints up half way through in the old standing area...security was to scared to say anything and let them go

They need to get in good security and enough numbers for these two fixtures and throw the bastards out. Be a bit pro-active when they start up and show them they're not welcome. Honestly, the only way they know how to enjoy themselves, is to ruin everybody else's night and try and piss all the locals off. Screw the lot of 'em, if we need the police, so be it. Then make a big deal about how all this trouble never happens with Australian or South African opposition. When you mudsling, some of it will stick.

There'll be streakers.

I agree they need to be dealt with. But, to be fair, it mainly happens when Waikato are in town and to a lesser extent Auckland. The Canes crowds have been not too bad.Canterbury/Otago OK too. Shit it doesn't even happen when the Mungos are in town. Although I haven't been to a Warriors game.

Most of the Kiwi supporters love giving it to us and plenty think their teams' superior records somehow bestow greatness on them personally (yuck, yuck. As if! ). But until our teams beat them consistently we'll just have to suck it up.

So we'd better get used to it - and let the dollars roll in!
