WHEN Western Force outside-centre Nick Cummins looks at his struggling team's next opponent, the rapidly improving Melbourne Rebels, he sees several things - a dangerous back line guided by a superstar, big wingers who put the team on the front foot and also a "bit of backyard footy".
"They'll have a crack," Cummins said of the Rebels yesterday. "They're playing like a top-two team, they've got nothing to lose … they're going really well.
"They've got [Kurtley] Beale at [No.] 10 now and he takes the line on and they've got big wingers who run the ball well and hard, which puts them on the front foot, so they can play their razzle-dazzle and they play a bit of backyard footy too."
But Cummins said the Force had "sussed out areas to exploit'' against the Rebels, including adding some bigger bodies to the back line. ''We're going to have some more go-forward this week. I think there might be a couple of positions moved around a bit."
The Force still had plenty to play for and would not just meekly play out the season. "What's left for us is to show character and turn it around," he said. "Through adversity is usually the best time to see people's character, and we do have the right blokes to have a go at it."
Rebels coach Damien Hill said his team would not take the Force lightly when they meet at nib Stadium in Perth on Sunday.
''They've beaten the Reds and the Waratahs this year and that's two things that we're yet to achieve,'' he said.

But it's just paraphrasing what he actually says two sentences later!
I just hope the Badger's right and Blake has seen some weaknesses we can exploit.
We're going to be in for a hard game

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ Guys!!!!! I couldn't take another depressing weekend of a bad loss! My blood pressure is suffering! Just please don't stand there with your feet nailed to the ground like last week as though you've been taking valium all afternoon. Run the ball fast and don't drop it, don't kick, knock over guys in front of you and run over that white line at the end of the field. ain't rocket science!! Geesh!
Maybe we should tell the lads the same as I tell my Grandson.
50c for everyone you make cry!![]()
May the FORCE be with you!
Nah, the "Superhero" media campaign is going to make all the difference this week!!![]()
