    I think some of you need to harden up and stop direcing your frustrations at me,, I'm here offering possible reasons as to why the western force might not have a team included in this yet to be announced tournament..everyone here is afterall pondering why no western force academy was included..

    Brokendowngunfighter, grow up buddy, if your not going to post anything worthwhile don't waste our time with dribble, the snide insults against me at growing tiresome

    The best bit for me is you edited the message and still managed to sound foolish.

    Rex, he's all right. Adds a bit of colour to the place.

    At least there's some intelligence lurking between his temples.

    I think he is just playing devils advocate here guys...the reasons youve given though TOCC are weak is piss and do not answer the multitude of questions we would answered by the ARU and the brokers of this little sware'... Just sounds really suss to me

    meh..... who cares?: let them 'them' have their silly little comp, and let 'them' carry on their business of managing Oz rugby with the cone of silence deployed...

    Time to say #$@* it! Lets go alone. How about we invite some SE Asian nations to participate in a Rugby Fest? Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, Singapore HongKong and and the like. Even invite Melbourne. Get some miners, a brewery and a bank to sponsor the whole shabang and have all the games televised .....

    I'm not saying my potential reasons are justification, this whole debate is based off one single article which really offered nothing in terms of reasoning or background.. Hence why I said it's premature to go assuming to much, everyone on this forum are more the aware of what deceivous little lies can resonate in articles from various journalists.. It's a assumption that the ARU were the driving body, it's a assumption that there was a timeframe to even allow extra teams in the supposed comp..

    I understand the angst about not been included in the discussions, but for all we know it could have been driven at the super club level in liaison with the pacific nations tems. Maybe they had a 6 week window to have a round robin comp, mauve the IRB only guaranteed funding for 6 week time frame..

    Just saying, people are getting very emotional over one single article which didn't exactly offer a whole lot. Heck, the comp might even go ahead, it's suss that there has been no whispers of it on the east coast.

    Thanks champ, good to see your contribution to the thread, if only we all had your sharp witted humor and ability to ridicule others without offering anything in substance...mother must be proud

    I will be attending the Tahs vs Force trial games on the 10th of Feburary. Will be watching with great interest.

    The speculation I have heard recently that this isn't a ARU intiative. It comes directly from the three traditional provinces. This would explain as to why the Force were not consulted. Maybe they should be working hard to get themselves involved now they know.

    Is that speculation any more informed then our speculation which we are told is overreaction?

    Don't know. Hence why it is 'speculation'. There isn't a great deal of detail regarding this proposed competition going around and it appears those involved are keeping quiet. Anyway, I'm not going to debate whether or not a RugbyWA representative should participate in such a competition. Of course they should.I was for the Force before the decision and am happy to hear of the continued progress. However, declaring an ARU conspiracy seems a little rash considering it all stems from a article with absolutely no real evidence apart from an interview. Journalists tend to take creative licence in such situations and without any more real information its not worth getting into a huff about. We'll see in time. If it is the beginning of something more significant then a RugbyWA representative should be looking for entry in the 2nd edition.

    I say F--K QLD and NSW

    lets send our academy team to play the Saffers academy sides. QLD is full of nancies from GPS schools. We need some hard competition.

    RSA is not much further than QLD

    Whilst we're on the subject, lets make WA a separate country. I'm tired of getting reamed by the ATO to support all those lefty commo lezzo welfare bludging w@nkers from the eastern states.

    TOCC, grow some balls. We can't stand whining little b1tches
