I have noticed a lot of comments about how shite Ripia is especially in the front page news thread regarding Force V Brumbies.
Great to see the penny has dropped.
Ripia is rubbish. Who signed him and why?
Great to see him get hooked and rabbit to 10. Make it permanent
Time to pick some local boys. The public transport system to the game shows that the sub culture of rugby is alive and well in Perth. Lots of saffers and kiwis and their kids in transit to the games. There is plenty of rugby stars in the making.
It was great to see under 8 teams from around the traps and two teams from Bunbury dressed in kit and providing a guard of honour for the Force onto the field.
The future is in our backyard. The fullback for Guildford high school in the curtain raiser showed more attacking skills and decision making than Ripia.
Time to stop hiring dead wood rejected from other franchises because they were rubbish and get a few local lads into the jersey.
There was more passion in the schoolboy game than the main fixture. The lads really went at the breakdown and the pick and drive and the post game celebration showed they were playing to and proud to win.
The main event was pretty hard to sit through with the only real passion coming after the siren as both teams got a sniff of winning. The match ended fittingly with Giteau punting the ball into the crowd to boos and jeers from a bored sh1tless crowd who had waited 80 minutes for something to get excited about. For a dead rubber, it might have been worth having a go.
I suppose the Brumbies have been so farking bad, they were happy to escape with a draw.
