[Burgs]

Thanks fellas, was fun but damn it's hot up here
Still be over 40 here.......

[O'Regan]

Cheers Burgs, and a good game it sounded like. Hopefully Henjak isn't injured too badly, because I want Giteau to stay at Inside centre.

Fantastic effort covering the game.Sounds like it's well done for all concerned with WA Rugby! Only wish I was there to see my son play...Thanks Burgs

[Burgs]

Henjak is fine.
Lachy MacKay's tip for next weeks backline is:

9. Henjak
10. Hilgendorf
11. Shepherd
12. Giteau
13. Cross
14. Staniforth
15. Mitchell
you heard it here first....or second if you were listening to the radio

Who would be your son mate, we would love to know, and welcome to the site anyway, hope you enjoyed the experience...

[Burgs]

My pleasure, I take it we have yet another Force parent online
Makes it even more a pleasure when I know we ar hooking up family and friends from far afield

Yeah, surprised Mtchell got the job over Sheps, but this isn't the certain team. Thats a fair enough team, For next week I would like to see Mckay get the job over James Hilgendolf. Maybe we will, maybe we don't, but one thing is for sure the Forces backline is the b est out of all the Australian teams.

[Burgs]

Anonymity is every Members prerogative though qld supporter, you don’t have to “come out to us”

[Burgs]

Gee QS, that must be hard to miss his first, I know that the folks down Palmyra way have great wraps on him and respect the impact he has had down there!

[frontrow]

That`s just sick, no one drinks that sh*t...
Otherwise good work all round, great to see him getting recognised as the talent he is...And being an ex palmyra player it`s even better....Nothing would compare to the pride you feel right now though so enjoy mate, we did...

And Burgs, you`d be right...awesome talent and respected locally, but i am sure his folks are gonna make it here for his super 14 debut, which can`t be too far away now given tonights performances...So technically, they haven`t really missed his first performance, and as a father i know they definately would, if they could....Nice to have you onboard QLD supporter, and i hope you can convert to Force supporter as soon as possible...

Yeah it is a bit tough but we got over last year to watch a few games and realy enjoyed WA we also caught the APC game in Brisbane

[Burgs]

You won't O'Regano, MacKay is out until at least Round 4
I think you can be fairly confident that is the team seeings as MacKay said that's where he reckons they will play.
He said he would swap Mitchell for Shepherd but that's how he thinks Mitch will pick them.
Only alternative he gave was Gits at 5/8 and Junior at #12.

[O'Regan]

ohh Damn, I was really looking foward to him playing. I was hoping he would really make his stance for the force Number #10 Jersey.
