So just the ~350 Super Rugby caps, and 2 international caps, between them, then.
Compared to our ~40, most of which come from Hoskins and Koteka.
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon
This definitely highlights their (Force representatives) will to win that competition.
That's awesome news. Well done boys, hopefully Rugby WA will let them do a lap of honor at the last home game
Trophy case has just been the kitchen draw up until now!
Time to get on built!
May the FORCE be with you!
Give us a break guys.
It's good to see the Force win something, and well done the players, but to call this comp a world competition is laughable.
For a start, it's an invitational tournament, there were no national sides involved, there were no qualifying criteria, and the number of "clubs" competing was minimal.
It was an enjoyable annual diversion for those participating, upon which nothing turned, and upon which there was no incentive for the "clubs" to field their best players.
Great to play in, great to watch, great for development and exposure, great for partisan jubilation, but world standard competition?
Hardly.
Who pissed in your cornflakes?
Phhh, if the yanks can have baseball world series, bring on world 10s
Beige.
Deep in your guts, you know it's nuts.
