How about in the same city as Buddy? He'll be on a bargain basement contract so maybe Buddy would rent him a cheap room at his Bondi pad. If JOC agrees to do the dishes and put the rubbish out. He could catch the train from Bondi to Concord for West Harbour training too.![]()

Tazz, I wish I had your optimism ?
I, for one, have always wanted him back at the force, despite the crap that comes with him.
But, after this decision, I can't believe he will contemplate staying in Australia - it will France or the mungoes.
Great loss to the wallabies and a greater loss to the force
My only issue with this (having been a little out of the loop for a while) is,
James hasn't been charged with anything
James hasn't appeared in court
James hasn't stolen any laptops
James hasn't gone on national television and called his teammates toxic.
But our flyhalf has.
Fair?
I now would encourage him to take the contract with the Force, work his arse off and graciously forgive the useless toss bags who threw him to the wolves all the while saving their troubled, but erratic favorite.
It would make a great sporting story, highly unlikely to happen the way I feel like it should, but a great story if he can pull it off.

To All Concerned
The ARU have got something about anyone who is or has been associated with the Western Force and as mentioned before .. Disciplinary action was required for JOCs issues but now the ARU have really set a standard that step out of line and you are gone... But if it goes to court then you are protected.. JOC should take this to Fair work Australia for unfair dismissal...
I agree that JOC's punishment is way worse than what either of the other two miscreants got, but we don't know whether there are other skeletons in JOC's cupboard that the ARU have taken into account. I seem to remember a newspaper piece saying there was more stuff about JOC that they couldn't print??
Also, as the guys on RugbyHQ said last night, Pulver and McKenzie are both new to their jobs and were under pressure to make a stand so as not to seem weak. So, maybe JOC was a victim of circumstance too.
I say send him to Toulon to spend some time with the consummate professional Jonny Wilkinson - if that doesn't turn him round, nothing will!

Sounds like I will get my wish maybe!
