This is based on the assumption that they won't be poached by Nedlands!



(RumourMonger - that one's for you old pal!)

There’re several political elections this year and figures get over exaggerated in media outlets/forums when campaigning.

I hope players return (Home) in 2014 after their extended playing sabbaticals.

As we are all aware the "academy" being run by the Force is not a true academy because of lack of funding. If they get an academy up and running I think we'll see a somewhat different makeup of players.
Oh and by the way. Five players in an academy does not make a Premier and Reserve Grade club.
Don't forget RugbyWA said Joondalup has to find at least 30 new players of Premier/Reserve Grade standard before they can even be considered.

:iconrofl:

aawww.... so much anger!

was about to ask... why the hating fellas??
someones proud of their clubs achievements and and thought to let us know, you can read into it all you want but the fact is they have mentioned nothing about their premier grade ambitions in this thread... give it a rest!

Cos it's Perth club rugby. And that, for better or worse, is the image it projects.

Terrible. And very boring.

The Forces' Levels 3 & 2 are very much a true "Jnr Academy" and a fair representation of U15's to U18 elite players in this state. (About 20 give or take)

Level 1 have between 12 to 16 at any given time and generally 18yr and over, but I wouldn't imagine injecting 200K would change the "makeup of players"????, just increase the size of the level 1 Academy (slightly) and possibly allow another 1 or 2 fulltime trainers and access to supplements, more external tutors re nutrition, drugs in sport, FB, booze n woman etc. and probably a tour over East annually.


Here's hoping we get this injection of cash back into our Level 1 Academy; IT IS A MUST!!!!
