WA PREMIER & COWAN TAKE TO NEW NIB STADIUM

EMIRATES WESTERN FORCE MEDIA ALERT
Tuesday, 19 March 2013

The Emirates Western Force will run out for their first home game of the season against the Cheetahs at the new nib Stadium on Saturday (23 March).

The stadium has undergone significant renovations since the end of the 2012 Super Rugby season and will feature a new eastern grandstand and southern stand, and massive new replay screens.

Premier of Western Australia, Mr Colin Barnett, and Emirates Western Force front-rower Pek Cowan, who captained the Force in their 19-12 win over the Reds, will look over nib Stadium today.

Apparently it's not babysitting when it's your own child - It's called looking after your kid!

Although only a week in, he's probably still looking after the wife as well as the baby!

Will he play Saturday ? He will be absolutely knackered from having a new born in the house and Alcock was one of our best on field on Saturday

I don't think being sleep deprived is reason to keep him out so as long as he is not injured still he will be there. But I would start him on the bench, Alcock and Cottrell have been outstanding so should start. Brown and McCalman should be getting nervous and need to step up.

Either that or play Hodgo at #8 with Brown and McCalman on the bench covering 2nd row and back row
