Force Dumps O'Connor

[tragic]

Well, I'm sorry that's it's come to this, and I'm sorry that it's taken this long to come to a resolution which isn't the best outcome for either the Force or Rabbit (especially). J'OC has had some poor advice and management here.

I already said that Trag. Great minds and all that. But I really only replied to say that we haven't seen a lot of you lately and it was worth the wait. That's one of the funniest avatars on record! Not a lot of women are into fart jokes

I've been around Just not posting much.

No Hilgendorf, no Nonu, please.

[farva]

Hilgendorf has gone backwards in Japan, and now at the Rebels. He is not the answer, he would be cover at best.

Nonu is an option, but we need to assess what the attitude problems were that got him out of the Canes.

In regards to local talent, where is Kyle Godwin at?
Or Zac Holmes?

Regardless of the off field crap, I still love watching JOC play, He's got a lot of talent.

Isn't the drawn out process down to the fact his useless 'lawyer' cant sign the ARU contract in time.. ??

I really hope JOC goes to a decent team, not the rebels or the Brumbies. Fact of the matter is the Australian Conference is not as evenly matched as either the NZ or SA conferences. They both have atleast 3 competitive teams, AU can hardly manage 2.

Start of this season i was so optemistic looking at the Force line up, but then again i had that feeling at the start of the season before.. I think we should rally to make the second half 30 mins, then we'd be top of the table.

So does this mean JOC will go to the Rebels with a similar set of demands? The Reds and Tahs aren't interested or can't afford him.

How would the KPI work on a 1 year contract?

he would only have to honour the 2nd year(this was a 2 year contract) if the team reached its KPI's in the first

[antiussentiment]

innman, fairbanks, dellit and sidey are developing in to something quite substantial. the "orgazmatron with hair" has shown he looks good in the centers also (even though he's touted as a wing) and "chuck rocks" has been the best looking 10 we've run out with for a while. we have the balls of a damn good (and flexible) bunch of backs.

why all the chatter about $$$ for a star? do we really need one? they only seem to break in some way or other anyway. :-P

i think mr graham, who seems to have a handle on most things, should be looking to keep developing the current bunch and be looking for new bench players?

Inman is off to the Rebels

[antiussentiment]

silly bugger..
i bet he'd get more game time here

yeah $20 says that one of them was that they make the finals or win the title

[ontheball]

Im not sure how to feel about this. after months of this crap this is the outcome and im not sure its the best for either party?! Does any one know what he and his management where after? Is it a case of a over zelouse managment team thinking they had the force rapped around there finger which has now back fired in their face or JOC believing his own press?

You are probably right - now what has he got - a nothing team, nothing coach, and a red-faced manager.

[ontheball]

JOC was a member of the Cottesloe Rugby Club.... Has anyone thought to ask how they feel?

They will probably be devastated ! LOL What has he done for Cottesloe though? Or his brother? They have half the Force players in their club, doesn't do them much good ! They still have to learn that "big names" do not make a successful team.
