Force V Red

[SinBin]

Why did horwill punch pocock in that ruck? Is Scott large arse that dumb to take on sharpie, he was being a serial pest all night that is the use of polite words. Bit of niggle going on between wallabies out there

Yeah, Poey looked pretty surprised after being popped by Horwill. But I laughed at Brownie being the enforcer on Higgenbottom "how dare you take on our Sharpie"

[BeeJay]

Much more width in attack this week. More ball in hand too.

I take it back re Cummins - great job at 13.

And Wara and Stanley are gaining confidence and playing better as others have suggested they would. Wara's positional play was excellent.

Weren't Poey, Sharpie and Sheehan fantastic!!!

If Sheps, Nalaga, Tupou and Dellitt are fit could lead to some selection headaches. We will need good midfield defence against SBW though, and speed out wide and at the back vs the Chiefs.

Bring it on!!!

[SinBin]

Yeah, watched the Tahds Chiefs game. Their back line will test us if they're given space. We're in a good place now though, brimming with confidence. If we keep it tight like we did in the first 20 minutes against the Reds (90% possession!!) and command the breakdown I think we can send those Mooloos off to SA hurting.

Pretty sure id seen Horwill try to choke poey with his forearm like he did to hodgo in preseason. Pocock cops a lot of dodgy acts against him but have never seen him react the way he did to Horwill.........poor form by the wallabies captain.

Palitu, Jono, WF1962 - Send us a PM whenever you're in town and have a brew during a force game sometime.....we might be outnumbered wiith mooloos supporters next weekend tho.

........poor form by the wallabies captain.

I think that was why Poey looked so surprised, like "you're the wallabies captain and just popped me on camera, are you for real"

about BLOODY time sharpie gets a try for the force!

That is his 2nd try for the force....1st one against the Chiefs 14/04/2007.

My prayers were answered.....I hope Stannard is out for a long time,
Well done boys, I think we found a new 10 and Cummins can stay at 13 as well.
Harvey did good at 15 again, but his lack of pace still concerns me.

not sure what you mean by this - but to wish anyone a injury is to me is a disgusting statement.

I hope I am misunderstanding what you are trying to say.

[Ecky]

Cummins at 13 against the Chiefs would be dicing with danger, unless he can get his defence sorted out in the next week

It was his first try at NIB

Not sure I'd say that about Stannard; but I hope Seymour gets the nod and when Stannard comes back he's on the bench and has to oust Seymour. Too often for us players return from injury straight into the line-up.

But what a chance for Seymour. With Cooper injured, Barnes looking out of sorts, and Deans possibly preferring O'Connor on the wing, Seymour has the chance to shine behind what's certainly the best pack in Australia, and close to it in the entire comp.

I'm not wishing injury on anyone. All I wanted was someone else at 10 so RG can see that stannard is not a 10. It happened to be through injury, so for me it's a blessing in disguise.

If Seymour comes on OK Chuck will likely be 9/10 bench cover with Sheehan & Seymour starting. Sheehan is getting on but he's proved he can play all the minutes reqired of him.

Anyone else see that penalty against Bam - not releasing - mid way thru the first half ? He ripped the ball away while the tackled player was still on his feet. Shit that's frustrating.

Sure did - happened down in the corner of the ground near me. Rubbish penalty

Chucky was on crutches after the game - one would suspect he will be out for at least a couple of weeks.
As Justin Turner is also for the next 6 weeks, we are running short of scrumhalves aren't we?
Who will provide cover for Sheehan?
