Not to overlook the Rebels, but the Reds coming to town next round - banged up and suspended, and on the tail-end of a rough tour to the Republic. Timing couldn't be better!
The Force have run them close the last three meetings (even last year's home game was closer than the scoreline showed), and it's time to close the deal.
Need to do the business in Melbourne first. A nice touch-up of Rabbit would be a good start! Then roll back to Perth with some confidence.
That would be a good outcome and give them 3-3 and a confidence boost with 3 more home games in a run. Hope you're on the money. Just as long as the team are not thinking that way.

No Digby either, they'll lose a lot of power there, hopefully they won't replace it with guile (we seem to be a bit suceptible to giule)

Not too good with cunning either...power, guile and cunning...oh and ...

Dear Lord, if you give us back Johnny Cash, we'll give you Justin Bieber.
Actually TOCC I think you'll find I was right on the money, we were tricked out of that match by a team which knew damn well we were three times their power, but we play dumb rugby.
The reds are the perfect team to exploit that and, as long as they don't replace Digby with somebody who can step through the line, or pass the ball we'll be better off.....I'm not holding my breath though.

Sorry TOCC, I was talking just about power.....you can't deny that our pack out muscled them in pretty much every area, it was the other areas where we didn't match them.
We've lost too many matches this year with established dominance. I didn't see the possession stats this week, but I'm sure they would have gone the way of every other game, force having heaps of ball, good advantage line and only one win? I call that power, but not enough penetration.
So yes, you're right, the Rebels aren't mugs, by a long shot, but you can't deny, we're not capitalizing on what could arguably be the best pack in the conference.
