    With Wasps possibly going into administration, are there any players from there you'd like to see for the Force?

    Their only Australian is Nic Berry, a scrum-half who's played a handful of games for the Reds. They have a few other internationals, but they either to seem to be in positions where we are already stocked (including Tom Rees and James Haskell, who's joining them from the Highlanders) or positions where the use of a marque player seems a bit redundant (eg, Tom Varndell).

    Gits!

    I would love to see him back, love him or hate him, he has exceptional talent.

    He could fill either 10 or 12 that we are sadly lacking anbd give us time to develop stanley and Seymour into the roles.

    While he may not be the nicest guy, its not fair to Seymour et al being dropped into the deep end and being told to swim if there is an alternative way to help better their development as players.

    Gits might be ok on the wing, he doesn't need to pass to anyone there, and it's closer when I want to throw beer cups at him.

    If we could isolate him from the team (including the supporters) he might be worth the 25c I'd pay to have him.

    Yeah Coach, the only Google reference is that Giteau is playing in fine form for Toulon in the Heinkien Cup and is about to meet Georgy Smith in the next round.

    I think someone in the TWF family is trying to upset the apple cart...

    I've also heard that Brock James - Henjak & Haig Sare are coming back also.....

    Nic Berry would be great for the Force.

    That'd be great, Brock and Matt are great players....and Brocky also seems like a great bloke. Can we have two out of three?

    I can't believe we haven't had a mining truck with a sh1t load of cash to get Brock James back. Why do we need to have an international player as our marque player.

    Also why not give henjak another chance, we know he messed up but if a pocock messed up we would give him another crack, whats the difference ? We got rid of that useless prick in hage sare.

    Henjak for 2 years / Brock for 3. And we have two of our "downfall" positions picked up with rather little money output. That's seems to be #1 priority instead of spending to get decnt players, we will get players.

    Big Tom Hockings is still in Perth studying.
    He missed the boat a little but I believe he was a better prospect than Wykes when they started out, Wykes took his opportunities while Tom had some stand out performances (Brisbane sans Sharpie for one) but didn't string them together.
    With maturity he could well be a stronger option now.
