Force V Reds

[GIGS20]

Both Genia and Braindead have said in that article that they don't care what the Force stalwarts think of them.

I have never been one to wish injury on any player, however I wouldn't cry too many tears if this pair received a little comeuppance on the weekend.

And the Force finally sorted themselves out and played 80 minutes like they have played the better 40 in every match this season.

Alby is the equal of an unfit Genia and the barbs will ensure he is motivated.

It won't be a walkover, that's for sure!

Interesting that the article says RG caused us more pain by leaving..........that was the best thing that has happened to the franchise. The bloke was an A-Grade dribbler and out of his depth. The rugby brand was worse than watching the equestrian whilst sober

Ioane out. A bonus for us

Genia in. A bonus for us. Frisby deserved to start after his last performance. He'll be disgruntled. He'd be a good purchase.

The Reds will be hard to beat

We'll fight them on the beaches..... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkTw3_PmKtc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkTw3_PmKtc[/ame]

Lets kick some @ss. The beer fridge is full. Lets celebrate in style

With a steaming great serve of "While Genia's here you will only ever play second fiddle" that would have to rankle a bloke who is obvusly ready to make the step up to the big show.

I'm sure the Reds management are dusting off the "team song" as we speak.




*team song may or may not be a euphemism for large bag of undocumented cash*

Impressed by Brown. He speaks well and is playing good rugby this year. He appears to have bulked up a bit and has an appetite for the game again. Being a Queenslander he will be motivated. If he gets a game

Damien Stannard From: The Courier-Mail March 14, 2013 12:00am

THE Queensland Reds have been warned about the booming boot of Sias Ebersohn, the Western Force sharpshooter who models his every movement on England great Jonny Wilkinson.

Ebersohn's 16-point haul in his starting debut for the Force a fortnight ago, including a 60m penalty, should alert Ewen McKenzie's men that any ill-discipline will be punished and potentially cost them their fourth win of the Super Rugby season.

Injured lock James Horwill is still a week away from an expected comeback but contributed yesterday by handing over a $5000 donation from Reds' sponsor St George to help with flood damage repairs at Norths Rugby Club.

Despite his slow and frustrating rehabilitation, the Wallabies skipper remains close enough to the Reds' on-field leadership to share their concern about gifting penalty opportunities to the South African recruit.

"Ebersohn's a guy we're wary of, especially within kicking range," Horwill said.

"Discipline will be important."

The winless Force left Perth yesterday without Wallabies winger Nick Cummins (knee) and lock Sam Wykes (ankle), who were ruled out of Saturday night's clash at Suncorp Stadium.

Former Churchie student Junior Rasolea is in line to replace Cummins and Phoenix Battye is the man most likely to step up in place of Wykes.

Captain Matt Hodgson is not due to join his teammates in Brisbane until Friday.

With Brumbies openside David Pocock sidelined with a season-ending knee injury, it presents another big audition for the Reds' Liam Gill.

"I think Gilly's been one of our best players," Horwill said.

"His workrate and ability to get involved is right up there with anyone in the competition. If he continues to put his hand up like that it will be hard not to pick him (for Australia)."

Our discipline will be just as important, especially supporting our pick and drive runners or else Eddie Quirk's going to be all over us.
