I doubt they are worried at all if Giteau plays.
They prepare for Giteau playing and if he does play then it will go ahead normally, if he doesn't play then it only gets easier. (You can say that they wont be prepared for Toomua, but i'd say he fits into the Forces general defensive plan).
Giteau will sook out.
Deadset@!
i figure thats why Mitchell signed a defensive back like Sam Harris... He'll do a good days work come friday...
Thats if the Brumbies can get any ball against our superior backrow.
I've been peering into my crystal ball....
My tips for the game: Expect Valentine to return to his pre-Force form (He'll be warming the bench by round 4) Stirlo will rock, Gits will be adequate and come off at 60 minutes with a minor injury, Harrison will get carded, AAC will be awesome, Fainifo and Lealiifano will go missing, Pek will have 100% success rate with his lineout throws and scrummage like a man possesed, Force scrum will win (2 at least) against the feed, Brown will NOT get a yellow card, Bart will step up, Hodgo will rock, Cam will play 80 minutes injury free, JO'C will be JO'C, Bam-Bam will be Bam-Bam, Sharpe will spend too much time on the wing - but it'll work, Cross will get the first try of the match and Sheehan will start slow and finish fast. Brumbies to be upa try in teh first with the Force coming home late in the 2nd for a win, however they will concede a bonus point to the ponies.
What I'm looking forward to the most is hearing Dunnings reception when he subs on at 65 ... Cheer or Jeer?
All good but the ending coach.... brumbies by +13...
Cheer of course, he is a legendary Force figure![]()
"Bloody oath we did!"
Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
In last year's match Giteau didn't have that big an influence. The thing that won it for the Force last year was that the Force wanted it much much more than the Brumbies did. We were beaten in the scrum, lineout was fairly even and George Smith did a lot of damage at the breakdown but we still won because we wanted it more. Our pack is better now and I'm pretty sure the Force will still want it a lot more than the Brumbies. I reckon Force by 6.
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
