Looking forward to the Force getting to see how they fair against some kiwi opposition this week, although a little worried the Chiefs have the potential to blow us away.
Should be a cracking crowd with 75% capacity available and the classic cow bell supporters turning out in droves. Hopefully the late start doesn't put off too many.
Would be great to have Kearney, Ralston, Macdonald and Lezana back. Particularly hoping we get to see Macdonald given some game time off the bench if he is fit over the next few weeks.
I think the Chiefs may decide to keep a few players at home given they're coming off a tough Super Aotearoa grand final, the travel to and from Perth will be relatively draining and they'll probably not rate us very highly. They should be without Nanai-Seturo also, who has joined the NZ 7's team for the Olympics.
How's everyone else feeling about the Force's chances?
