    Twiggy should guarantee the salaries of all Force players and staff so they can continue the fight, because they won't have a choice but to leave if somebody doesn't.

    I seriously cannot believe we lost the arbitration. Seems like a very dodgy decision to me - basically saying our agreement wasn't worth the paper it was written on because the TV rights deal had slightly changed.

    What a fucking joke. Let's burn the place to the ground!

    The Australian Rugby Union (ARU) has today resolved to discontinue the Western Force Super Rugby licence.

    The decision comes after several weeks of consultation with Rugby bodies and stakeholders, including Government and commercial partners.

    ARU Chairman, Cameron Clyne said: “The ARU Board has today made the decision to discontinue the Western Force as the Super Rugby competition reverts to fifteen teams for the 2018 season.

    “This has been a complex process to reduce Australia’s Super Rugby representation to four teams as agreed by SANZAAR following its review of the competition.

    “We are regretful that this issue has consumed so much of the public commentary on the game in 2017. It was clearly not our intention for this to play out over such a lengthy period however there have been factors outside the ARU’s control that have prevented us from completing the process.

    “Our decision to exit the Western Force has been guided primarily by financial outcomes.

    “As we have reinforced throughout this process, there are commercial realities which are linked to declining on-field performance across our Super Rugby teams which has put Australian Rugby in a position where it can no longer sustain five teams.

    “Furthermore, the significant unbudgeted support funding that has been provided to Super Rugby teams over the past five years has greatly affected our capacity to invest in community Rugby.

    “This is a sad day for Rugby, especially for Western Force fans. We accept that there will be anger and resentment over this decision and we sympathise with those fans. We sincerely hope that they are not lost to the game forever.

    “The decision to exit the Western Force from Super Rugby is not a decision to abandon the game in Western Australia.

    “Western Australia will retain an important place in Australian Rugby and the ARU will continue to support youth development programs and the community game in the West. There will be a clear pathway for young Western Australian Rugby players to reach the highest level and represent the Wallabies.

    “Our immediate concern is to support the individuals at the Western Force through these difficult circumstances and we will deploy various ARU management staff to Western Australia to provide assistance to all players and staff.”

    I would recommend everyone here to not give a single cent to the ARU. Hell, I would recommend forceably barring people entering the stadium on game day. Bugger the lot of them.

    The ARU have officially made the decision to discontinue the Western Force’s Super Rugby license, ending months of speculation about which team will be cut for the 2018 season.

    ARU Chairman, Cameron Clyne said: “The ARU Board has today made the decision to discontinue the Western Force as the Super Rugby competition reverts to fifteen teams for the 2018 season.

    “This has been a complex process to reduce Australia’s Super Rugby representation to four teams as agreed by SANZAAR following its review of the competition.”

    The decision means the Melbourne Rebels – the other team which had been facing the axe – will remain in the Super Rugby competition next year.

    MORE TO COME…

    And there it is in a nutshell.
    Immediately following an arbitration hearing to determine whether or not they can legally cut the force from the competition, they bring out the knives.

    That instantly proves that this was never about criteria, kpi's or performance. It was just about who is easier to cut.

    Well, that pretty much does it for ny support of the wallabies and the corrupt ARU.
