That was bad, real bad... I will await my letter from rugby WA, if last year wasn't good enough, and fell below what was expected, this year ain't much better!....
Well, I rate that performance as a 2, as in:
Too slow
Too flat
Too static
Too predictable
Too many bloody stupid kicks
Too soft in defense
Too easily turned round
Too poor ball skills
Too many poor decisions
Too many stupid mistakes
Too quiet in talking to the ref
Too poor a game of rugby to enjoy
The sad thing is that if the ref had done a half-decent job we were in with a shout of winning that game. How many 'final' warnings did he give the Rebels? Why wasn't Hodgson quietly reminding him of all those warnings?
The scary thing is that I think the Force are on the brink of a massive crash in attendances. The paying public (and by that I mean both those of us who buy season tickets and the occassional punter) have stayed loyal through the Subiaco years and the poor MES/NiB facilities with the promise that things will get better. Now we have the new stand (and don't get me started on that!) the rugby has been getting worse. I heard the boos, and it was wasn't isolated individuals, it was an awful lot of the Eastern stand. Based on that performance we might not even sell out the Crusaders - I was chatting to a Kiwi after the game, and he reckons not even the Kiwi occassionals will bother coming as they don't want to watch the Crusaders put 100 points on us - which they could given today's performance.
At the 20 minute mark, why didn't McMeniman take a nice low dive for the try-line?!

I'm just lost for words at how terrible we were. Nothing went right for us. It was comedic at times just how terrible we played. How many points do we have to gift teams? How many pathetically silly errors can one team make?
Kicking - horrible
Attack - horrible
Defence - horrible
Scrum - below average
Lineout - par
Organisation - horrible
Work rate - horrible
Handling - horrible
Gameplan - horrible
Attitude - non existent
MMM injury - shattering
Spectator experience - horrible
Signs of Improvement - non existent
Hope for future - 3%
Work in progress we are not, we are living in a fools paradise.
Tonight was a regression.
I'm sticking tight and hoping for better but i just don't know how much longer i can do this to myself.
There are 3 types of people in this world, those that can count and those that can't
still angry...walked into northbridge after game to get something to eat, caught train, just about to go to the gym. could have, should have, would have pummelled the Rebels had they bothered to actually play a full game rather than a few minutes. Absolutely inexcuseable effort. Didn't bother to clap the players who came past the stand. they didn't deserve it. They played with no heart, no pride no self respect. frigging useless.
Thinking about our performances earlier in the season it would not have been unreasonable to expect we would have a 3/3 record by now (exc bye). hopeless.![]()
GOD DAMMIT! LET'S JUST BEAT THE FAHKEN' NEW ZEALANDERS NEXT WEEK!!!
DO SOMETHING FOR YOUR FANS, FOR FAHK'S SAKE!

I just can't see us winning at home this season.
Lucky I prepared for tonight. Went straight to cinema afterwards for some entertainment. OK it was Die Hard, but the mindless violence helped me forget about the game! Will book tickets again for after next game.
That was dire. I'm wondering what we are practicing all week... Penalty to touch goes out in goal ! If you saw that in school boy game youd say wtf? We have to get some quality in the backs, I mean top quality FH / centre/ fb actually the whole lot. Things have been downhill since gits left , love him or loathe him, it's true. Someone or two of his quality is what we need. Meanwhile give some others a run, Ed Stubbs , CTM, Hayward, things can't be worse surely. For the first time in 8 years I think I can say I have had enough. I have no faith or hope in seeing a victory this year. I will try to enjoy watching the skills of the oppo if nothing else. I have zero expectation for next week. However same could be said for 2006. We got a draw that night.
Actually I was thinking tonight would force 2006 beat force 2013? I thought they would

Yep I think you have summed it up but it's what I said 7/8 years ago " we won't win but at least we will see some the worlds best players".
It hasn't changed at all. And to be honest if I don't see something before the end of the year there won't be a year 9.
Sorry all but that's the truth. I'll still watch every game on Fox but at least I can record it or turn it off.
Lets just hope they can show a glimmer of something in the next few weeks.
OMG I've just remembered they are playing the Lions and that will be shown all over the rugby world, God that is going to be embarrassing.
May the FORCE be with you!
At least our scrum was solid went it went to uncontested!
Well I am here and reading but just lost for words.... short and sweet I hope all our injuries are
not to bad..
just 1 thing the rebs did there home work and found did penetrate the kick chase at our 22 as the could see we did not have a strong FB at home
nope..still pissed after the gym..wonder if the wife is still up..![]()
